| Résumé : | The synthesis of AlNi from thermally activated equimolar powder mixtures of aluminium and nickel was monitored in situ and acquired diffraction patterns every 2 s or less. The analysis of diffraction patterns View the MathML source permitted establishment of its kinetics, which could be modeled according to an equation expressed as kt=[α/(1-α)]3/2. From 1530 to View the MathML source an activation energy of 9 ± 2 kJ mol−1 was estimated. Also, the crystallite size evolution on cooling was established to vary from ≈14 nm at 1530 °C to ≈28 nm at 180 °C. Finally, the reaction was found to occur through the melting of aluminium and the subsequent dissolving of nickel to form the polycrystalline single-phase product, AlNi. |
