Abstract

In-situ synchrotron radiation X-ray powder diffraction is shown to be complementary to thermal analysis for the study of the annealing of a ball-milled nanocrystalline Fe 1.5 wt pct Mo powder. The evolution of domain size distribution and defects is quantified via whole powder pattern modeling (WPPM) of the diffraction data. A possible annealing mechanism is proposed for the powder.
