    Comparison of the particle size distribution in marble and granite rock samples subjected to ball milling process
    (Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration theng@smenet.org 12999 E Adam Aircraft Circle Englewood,Colorado 80112 Colorado, 2019) Kunar, B.M.; Murthy, C.S.N.; Rao, B.K.
    Rock particle size has a very important significance in the mining industry, starting from blasting till the mineral processing. The present study was carried out to understand the particle size distribution in various sieves after conducting the ball milling process. The time of the grinding process was varied at different intervals. It was observed that 80% of the particles of both granite and marble rock samples passed through the 4800 μm sieve when subjected to grinding time of 40 minutes. Also, it was observed the number of particles that were retained in the smallest sieve of <75 μm was higher in the case of granite sample when compared to a marble sample. © © 2019 by SME.

    Synthesis and characterization of nano-alumina powder by milling of Al and MnO2powder mixture
    (Elsevier Ltd, 2021) Ravikumar, K.S.; Ghanaraja, S.; Ramesh, M.R.
    There are extensive study on nano composites because of its outstanding mechanical properties when compared with the monolithic materials. The manufacturing of nano particles presents an increasing interest. There are two basic strategy for the synthesis of nano particles, they are bottom up and top down approach. Nano particles are built atom by atom in the bottom up approach. In the synthesis of nano particles, top down approach is most applied one. In this approach, bulk materials are broken down gradually into smaller sizes until they reach nano size. Ball milling is most widely used method for the top down approch. Ball milling process involves milling of constituent powders in a vial where mechanical deformation and chemical reactions takes place between the powders to form new phase. In the present study, constituent powder mixture of Al (1.845 μm) and MnO2(0.75 μm) are subjected to high energy planetary ball milling to form new phase which is of nano alumina (Al2O3). Initially, Al and MnO2powder mixture are taken in the ratio of 1:2.416 by weight for different milling duration of 120 min, 240 min and 360 min. The constant speed of the mill was maintained at 300 rpm. The powder mixture inside the mill subjected to impact force between ball to ball and between ball to wall of the container undergo cyclic deformation, cold welding and fracture ensures the generation of nano alumina particles in the range of 50 nm to 560 nm. The effect of mechanical alloying on the microstructure of the powder mixture have been studied by scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and EDS. Toluene was used during milling appears effective process control agent to avoid severe agglomeration and to enhance milling effect. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Utilization of Recycled Concrete Aggregates Processed Using the Ball Milling Method in Cement-Treated Bases for Pavements
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024) Chiranjeevi, K.; Kumar, D.H.; Kumar, A.J.; Thapas, N.D.S.; Ravi Shankar, A.U.
    Pavement construction and maintenance have become very common worldwide as traffic volumes and vehicular axle weights continue to rise as the global population grows and technology advances. The extensive utilization of natural resources implies that their existence for long-term availability cannot be assured. Using materials from the various damaged and collapsed structures will save money and find a solution to the trash disposal issue. These materials have inferior engineering properties compared to conventional materials and cannot be used directly in pavement applications. These materials must be processed or stabilized by mechanical and chemical stabilization techniques. Processing of Recycled Concrete Aggregates (RCAs) has gained more importance in improving the physical properties. In the current investigation, construction and demolition (C&D) waste was processed in two stages successively. In the first stage, C&D waste was subjected to manual crushing and further processed through jaw crushing. The aggregates were processed through ball milling in the second stage. The natural aggregates are entirely replaced with the RCA in cement-treated bases (CTBs) at 3, 5, and 7% stabilization levels. Mechanical and durability properties were evaluated. The RCA produced from the ball milling method performs better than the unprocessed RCA. The mix having 7% cement content with processed RCA met the specifications for CTB. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2024.
