Xray line profile analysis of the ballmilled Fe30Co alloy
Elemental Fe (%, particle size 68 μm) and Co (%, particle size 15 μm) powders were mechanically alloyed so as to get the desired composition Fe30%Co. Ball milling was performed up to 24 h in a planetary ball mill (Fritsch Pulverisette 7) with Cr stainless steel balls and vials and under an argon atmosphere.
