The nanocrystalline β-SiC powder was successfully synthesized by ball milling the Si-50%C elemental powder. During ball milling, a solid solution of C in Si, Si（C）, firstly forms, followed by SiC. The formation of SiC is controlled by the mixing mechanism of the gradual diffusion reaction（GDR） and t...
