The microstructure and mechanical properties of $TiB_2/Si$ nanocomposites based on the Ti-Si-B system, consolidated by spark plasma sintering of mechanically alloyed activated nanopowders, have been characterized. Mechanical Alloying was carried out in a planetary ball mill for 180 min with 350 rev $min^{-1}$. The powders were pressed in vacuum at a pressure of 60 MPa, generating a maximum temperature in the graphite mould of $1400^{\circ}C$. Analysis of the synthesized nanocomposites by SEM, XRD and TEM showed them to consist of $TiB_2$ second phase, sub-micron in size, with no third phase. Composites consolidated from powders mechanically alloyed from an initial elemental powder mix of 0.3 mol Si, 0.7 mol Ti, and 2.0 mol B achieved the best relative density (97%) and bending strength (774 MPa); the highest Vickers hardness of 14.7 GPa was achieved for the 0.1-0.9-2.0 mol starting composition.

Nanostuctured TiAl powder was synthesized by high energy ball milling. A dense nanostuctured TiAl was consolidated using pulsed current activated sintering method within 2 minutes from mechanically synthesized powders of TiAl and horizontally milled powders of Ti+Al. The grain size and hardness of TiAl sintered from horizontally milled Ti+Al powders and high energy ball milled TiAl powder were 35 nm, 20 nm and 450 kg/$mm^2$, 630 kg/$mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowder of FeAl was synthesized by high energy ball milling. Using the pulsed current activated sintering method, a dense nanostuctured FeAl was consolidated within 2 minutes from mechanically synthesized powders of FeAl and horizontally milled powders of Fe+Al. The grain size and hardness of FeAl sintered from horizontally milled Fe+Al powders and high energy ball milled FeAl powder were 150 nm, 50 nm and $466\;kg/mm^2$, $574\;kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowder of TiCu was synthesized by high-energy ball milling. A dense nanostructured TiCu was consolidated using a pulsed-current activated sintering method within 1 minute from mechanically synthesized powders of TiCu and horizontally milled powders of Ti+Cu. The grain size and hardness of the TiCu sintered from horizontally milled Ti+Cu powders and high-energy ball-milled TiCu powder were 68 nm, 27 nm and $490kg/mm^2$, $600kg/mm^2$, respectively.

Nanopowders of TiCo were synthesized from Ti and Co by high energy ball milling. Highly dense nanostructured TiCo compounds were consolidated at low temperature by pulsed current activated sintering within 3 minutes from the mechanical synthesis of the powders (TiCo) and horizontal milled Ti+Co powders under 100 Mpa pressure. This process allows very quick densification to near theoretical density and prohibits grain growth in nanostructured materials. The grain sizes of the TiCo compounds were calculated. Finally, the average hardness values of the nanostructured TiCo compounds were investigated.

The high temperature deformation behavior of the activated sintered W powder compacts was investigated. The W compact showed the relative density of 94% with the average W grain size of $23\mutextrm{m}$ by activated sintering at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Compression tests were carried out in the temperature range of $900-1100^{\circ}C$ at the strain rate range of $10^{0}$/sec - $10^{-3}$/sec. True stress-strain curve and microstructure exhibited the grain boundary brittleness which was dependent on the compression test temperature. The activated sintered W compact showed that the maximum stress as well as the strain at the maximum stress was abruptly decreased as the test temperature increase from $900^{\circ}C$ to 1000 and $1100^{\circ}C$ regardless of the strain rate. The discrepancy of the microstructure in the specimen center was obviously observed with the increase of the test temperature. After compression test at $900^{\circ}C$ the W grain was severely deformed normally against the compression axis. However, after compression test at $1000^{\circ}C$ and $1100^{\circ}C$ the W grain was not deformed, but the microcrack was formed in the W grain boundary. The Ni-rich second phase segregated along the W grain boundary could be partly unstable over $900^{\circ}C$ and affect the poor mechanical property of the activated sintered W compact.

The effect of ball milling on the pressureless sintering of MoSi$_2$ was investigated. Ball milling was conducted at 70 rpm for 72 hours using different balls and vessels: one used tungsten carbide balls in a plastic vessel(referred as B-powder) and the other stainless steel ball in a stainless steel vessel(referred as C- powder). The powder was compacted with 173MPa and subsequently sintered at the temperature range of 1150 $^{\circ}C$ and 1450 $^{\circ}C$ in H$_2$, atmosphere. Sintered density was measured and scanning electron micrograph was observed. Over 90% of the theoretical density was attained at 1250 $^{\circ}C$ within 10 minutes for C-powders, while the similar densification required a sintering temperature of 1450 $^{\circ}C$ for B-powders. Such a difference in sinterability between B and C-powders was discussed in terms of the effect of particle size reduction and activated sintering caused by Ni and/or Fe introduced during ball milling.
