Employing X-Ray Scattering to Characterize Materials with Grain Sizes in the Nano-Regime
E. A. Laitila and D. E. Mikkola

This study focuses on characterization of an (Al, Cr)3Ti alloy processed together with titanium powder by reactive mechanical milling (RMM) to produce and an ultra-fine grained intermetallic alloy matrix with in situ carbide and hydride phases formed during processing.... FULL ABSTRACT (PDF)

This manuscript is to be published in the Denver X-Ray Conference proceedings. It has also been selected as one of the papers to which an issue of Powder Diffraction will be dedicated. The paper "Employing X-Ray Scattering to Characterize Materials with Grain Sizes in the Nano-Regime" will be published in the June 2008 issue of Powder Diffraction
