Abstract
The thermal stability of nanocrystalline fcc and hcp Ni(Si), obtained by mechanical alloying of Ni90Si10, has been studied. The allotropic transformation from fcc to hcp Ni(Si) is accompanied by a volume expansion of 8.6% and is observed when fcc Ni(Si) reaches a critical crystallite size of 10 nm. The hcp phase transforms to stable fcc Ni(Si) at 573 K. It has been identified that the lattice distortion in nanometre-sized crystallites from the equilibrium configuration and the decrease in the interfacial energy with grain refinement act as self obstacles in controlling the grain growth of nanocrystalline materials.
