title = "Fullerene-metal composites: Phase transformations during milling and sintering",
abstract = "Composites of Fe-C60 and Al C60 produced by mechanical milling and sinterized by Spark Plasma Sintering are investigated with special attention to the mechanical properties of the products. The processing involves phase transformations of the fullerenes that are interesting to follow and characterize. This involves formation of tetragonal/rhombohedral diamond and carbides during sintering and milling. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and Raman Spectroscopy techniques are also used to confirm preliminary results of X Ray Diffraction (XRD) related to the formation of nanostructures i.e., grain size of the crystals during mechanical milling and after sintering, spatial distribution of phases and the different phases that are developed during processing.",
