high-energy planetary fast milling. In the solid solution method, CuO powder was added to
the Cu–Al solid solution powder, and the composite was fabricated by milling after 100 h. In
the direct mixing method, Cu and Al2O3 powders were mechanically milled via high-energy
planetary fast milling for 100 h. The transition electron micrographs (dark and white fields)
revealed the presence of Al2O3 nanoparticles in crystalline Cu matrices for both methods …
