This study is focused on investigating the relation between the particle size of silver flake powder and mechanical milling parameters. Mechanical milling parameters such as ball size, impeller rotation speed and milling time of the attrition ball-mill were controlled to produce silver flake powder. The particle size of the silver flake powder increased with increasing ball size and impeller rotation speed. The change of the particle size of the silver flake powder with mechanical milling parameters was analyzed based on balls motion in the mill container of the attrition ball-mill. The silver flake particles were formed at the elastic deformation area of the ball due to the collision between balls. The change of the particle size of the silver flake powder with mechanical milling parameters well consists with the change of the collision energy of ball with parameters mentioned above.

The hardness of hard red winter (HRW) wheat had an effect on the yield of farina , as it positively correlated with the coarse fraction (over 34W) and negatively correlated with the flour fraction from farina milling. But it did not show any significances on flour milling from the micromilling process. The flour yields was better correlated with the break flour fraction (r=0.730 than with reduction flour (r=0.27). The farina yield was controlled by a fraction over 34W (coarse granule0. Protein was the most important single factor for the quality of cooked farina spaghetti, but not for flour milling or farina milling. On the other hand, hardness was important in the production of farina milling , whereas it did not govern spaghetti cooking quality, Environmental factors affected the quality of cooked spaghetti as much as varieties of HRW wheats. The quality of cooked farina spaghetti generally correlated with the protein in the location composites of wheats. Higher protein content wheats showed better spaghetti cooking quality.

End milling is one of the most widely used machining operations. It is associated with productivity and production quality progress. In metal cutting with up and down milling, moment is important factor to diagnose the cutting characteristics because the amount of tool wear directly influences the moment. In this study, the effects of number of milling cutting edges on the cutting performance, especially on the moment, are investigated. The results acquired through the cutting test measuring moment show that up milling is superior to down milling.

In end milling process, undeformed chip thickness and cutting force vary periodically with phase change of the tool. Recently, a model has been proposed to simulate the shear and friction characteristics of an up-end milling process in terms of the equivalent oblique cutting to this. In the current study, the varying undeformed chip thickness and the cutting forces in a down-end milling process have been replaced with the equivalent ones of oblique cutting. And, the down-end milling characteristics of SM45C has been compared with that of the up-end milling previously presented with different helix angles.

Al2O3/SiC nanocomposites are fabricated through intensive ball milling to mix fine SiC particles uniformly with the Al2O3 powder. Another role of milling is to reduce particle sizes by crushing particles as well as agglomerates. However, balls are worn during ball milling and the sample powder mixtures pick up to weight loss of the balls. In this study, pressureless sintering was performed to obtain Al2O3/SiC nanocomposites. It was found that the wear rate of zirconia balls during milling was considerable, and the zirconia addition after even a few hours of ball milling could increase the sintering rates of the nanocomposites significantly. Thus, addition of ZrO2 changed the sintering behaviors as well as mechanical properties of Al2O3/SiC nanocomposites.

This paper outlines the Taguchi optimization methodology, which is applied to optimize cutting parameters in end milling when machining STS304 with TiAlN coated SKH59 tool under up and down end milling conditions. The end milling parameters evaluated are depth of cut, spindle speed and feed rate. An orthogonal array, signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio and analysis of variance (ANOVA) are employed to analyze the effect of these end milling parameters. The Taguchi design is an efficient and effective experimental method in which a response variable can be optimized, given various control and noise factors, using fewer resources than a factorial design. An orthogonal array of $L_9(33)$ was used. The most important input parameter for cutting force, however, is the feed rate, and depending on the cutter rotation direction. Finally, confirmation tests verified that the Taguchi design was successful in optimizing end milling parameters for cutting force.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of abrasive processing and non abrasive processing in the milling process on the quality of rice. The effect was analyzed based on the factor such as whiteness, grain temperature, moisture content, crack and broken rice ratio. The results were as followings. Whiteness of abrasive rice was the same as non abrasive rice. The rice temperature increase of abrasive rice was $1.6^{\circ}C$ lower than non abrasive rice. The crack ratio was increased in the process of milling and non abrasive rice showed higher values than abrasive rice. The broken rice ratio of the using abrasive processing was about 0.05% lower than that of non abrasive processing. The moisture content decreased in the process of milling regardless of the use abrasive rice milling machine.

To fabricate W-Cu nanocomposite powder, $WO_3$-CuO powder mixture was high-energetically ball-milled and subsequently hydrogen-reduced. The effect of ball-milling on the hydrogen-reduction behavior of$ WO_3$-CuO was investigated with non-isothermal hygrometric analysis during hydrogen-reduction. Increasing the ball-milling time, the reduction peak temperatures of humidity curves were shifted to low temperature. It was considered that the reduction temperature should be decreased because the specific surface area of each oxide considerably increased with increasing the ball-milling time. In case of ball-milling for 0 h, $WO_3$and CuO were independently hydrogen-reduced and W particles were nucleated on the surface of Cu adjacent to W by CVT. However, in case of ball-milling for 50 h, the aggregates of about 200-300 nm were observed. W particles of size below 30-50 nm were homogeneously distributed with Cu in the aggregates.

High energy ball milling is employed to produce iron matrix- multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) reinforced composite. The damage caused to MWCNT due to harsh ball milling condition and its influence on interfacial bonding is studied. Different amount of MWCNT is used to find the optimal percentage of MWCNT for avoidance of the formation of chemical reaction product at the matrix - reinforcement interface. Effect of process control agent is assessed by the use of different materials for the purpose. It is observed that ethanol as a process control agent (PCA) causes degradation of MWCNT reinforcements after milling for two hours whereas solid stearic acid used as process control agent, allows satisfactory conservation of MWCNT structure. It is further noted that at a high MWCNT content (~ 2wt.%), high energy ball milling leads to reaction of iron and carbon and forms iron carbide (cementite) at the iron-MWCNT interface. At low percentage of MWCNT, dissolution of carbon in iron takes place and the amount of reinforcement in iron matrix composite becomes negligibly small. However, under the present ball milling condition (ball to metal ratio~ 6:1 and 200 rpm vial speed) iron-1wt.% MWCNT composite of good interfacial bonding can retain the tubular structure of reinforcing MWCNT.

In this research, the optimal manufacturing conditions of fine Si powders from Si scrap were investigated as a function of different initial powder size using the high-energy ball milling equipment, which produces the fine powder by means of an ultra high-energy within a short duration. The morphological change of the powders according to the milling time was observed by Scanning electron microscopy (SEM). With the increasing milling time, the size of Si powder was decreased. In addition, more energy and stress for milling were required with the decreasing initial powder size. The refinement of Si scrap was rapidly carried out at 10min ball milling time. However, the refined powder started to agglomerate at 30 min milling time, while the powder size became uniform at 60 min milling time.
