Abstract
Most metal carbides or slicides may be synthesized at room temperature, by ball milling mixtures of elemental powders for some tens of hours with a vibratory mill. Both stable and metastable compounds containing a high density of defects can be obtained. In general, phases stable at low temperatures are synthesized. This observation allows us to confirm recent estimations for the maximum temperature (∼600 K) attained in these powders during mechanical alloying. Exceptions are found for some MSi2 suicides with M = titanium, iron or molybdenum for which both low- and high-temperature phases are formed.
