Electrochemical Noise Response of Cr2Nb Powders Applying Mechanical Alloying

Cr2Nb alloys are potential candidates for high-temperature structural materials. The influence of different mechanical alloying parameters (milling time) and sintering processes were studied. After mechanical alloying and observation by scanning electron microscope (SEM), nano powders were characterized and then sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Electrochemical noise (EN) tests were also conducted in order to study the electrochemical behavior. From the current experimental results, it was revealed that ball milling times up to 20 h may explain the influence of Nb–Cr alloys and its association to the Laves phase and corrosion behavior. These insights aimed at improving the samples’ predicted behavior before spending time and resources at high-temperature industrial processes.
