      Exothermic reaction characteristics of continuously ball-milled Al/Ni powder compacts 

      Hadjiafxenti, A.; Gunduz, I. E.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Doumanidis, C. C.; Rebholz, Claus (2013)
      Self-propagating reactions in compacted pellets of continuously low-energy ball-milled aluminium (Al) and nickel (Ni) powders at a composition corresponding to AlNi3 were investigated. The formation of a bi-modal structure ...
