Why the ball to powder ratio (BPR) is insufficient for describing the ...
Section snippets Experimental procedure. Magnesium hydride powder (ABCR Germany, 98%) was milled in a Fritsh P7 premiumline planetary ball mill. The milling process was performed with different parameters, including the ball and powder mass, total milling time and number of cycles, but the ball to powder ratio (BPR) was kept constant in all cases.
