Abstract
Based on X - ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) investigations, the phase transitions induced by mechanical alloying (MA) on the Fe rich side of the Fe - Si system has been studied. Starting from a mixture of Fe and Si powders, MA leads to an expansion (up to 27.5 at. % Si) of the A2 crystalline disordered solid solution phase domain. In this composition field, an amorphous phase is also detected. The expansion of the disordered A2 phase domain up to 27.5 at.% Si has been confirmed by Mössbauer spectroscopy investigations. An annealing of the mechanically alloyed powders at 800°C for 48 hours leads exactly to the thermodynamically stable structures consistent with the sample stoechiometry. A high coercive force value of 17.2 kA/m at 1 kHz frequency and 0.15 T magnetic induction was reported for the 9.5 at. % Si.
