A review on aluminothermic reaction of Al/ZnO system ...
Effect of ball milling time on XRD patterns of (a) AlZnO, (b) AlZnOCuO and (c) AlZnOMnO 2 powders . As indicated in Fig. 13, the intensity of ZnO peaks decreases by ball milling up to 30 h. Moreover, the CuO and MnO 2 peaks disappeared after 2 h and 5 h milling, respectively, and only Al and ZnO peaks were detected at the end of 30 h milling.
