Mixture of nickel and titanium powders were milled in planetary mill under argon atmosphere for 100 hours at room temperature. Every 10 hours the structure, morphology and chemical composition was studied by X-ray diffraction method (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) as well as electron transmission microscope (TEM). Analysis revealed that elongation of milling time caused alloying of the elements. After 100 hours of milling the powders was in nanocrystalline and an amorphous state. Also extending of milling time affected the crystal size and microstrains of the alloying elements as well as the newly formed alloy. Crystallization of amorphous alloys proceeds above 600°C. In consequence, the alloy (at room temperature) consisted of mixture of the B2 parent phase and a small amount of the B19’ martensite. Dependently on the milling time and followed crystallization the NiTi alloy can be received in a form of the powder with average crystallite size from 1,5 up to 4 nm.

Ag – 8 wt. % ZnO composites were synthesized by ball milling, heat treating and hot pressing of silver and zinc oxide powder mixtures. The crystalline size and microstrain of the milled powders before and after heat treatment were determined by Debye-Scherrer andWilliamson-Hall methods. It was shown that heat treatment resulted in decrease of microstrain and increase in the crystallite size of the milled powders. The effect of uniaxial pressure magnitude and duration of hot pressing at 550 °C on the final density of the powder compacts were investigated. The results showed that both plastic flow and atomic diffusion mechanisms affected densification of the composite powders during the hot pressing process. However, the latter one had more effective role on the density of the hot-pressed samples. The synthesized composites showed homogenous microstructure with relatively high density and hardness.
