Reduction of Surface hr~ >ion Caused by Helium Blistering in Sintered Beryllium and Sintered Aluminum Powder

Studies have been conducted to find Materials with microstructures which Minimize the formation of blisters. A promising class of materials appears to be sintered metal powder with small average grain sizes and low atomic number Z. Studies of the surface erosion of sintered aluminum powder (SAP 895) and of aluminum held at AOO'C due to blistering by 100 keV helium ions have been conducted and t...

Characterization of loose powder sintered porous titanium and Ti6Al4V alloy

Porous titanium and Ti6Al4V alloy, biomedical candidate materials for use in orthopedic and dental implants, were manufactured by sintering the powders at various temperatures in loose condition. The characteristics of the corresponding powders and utilized sintering temperatures limited the final porosities in the range 30-37.5 vol. %. Similar to wrought alloys, compression stress-strain curve...

Metal functionalization of carbon nanotubes for enhanced sintered powder wicks

Phase change cooling schemes involving passive heat spreading devices, such as heat pipes and vapor chambers, are widely adopted for thermal management of high heat-flux technologies. In this study, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are fabricated on a 200 lm thick sintered copper powder wick layer using microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. A physical vapor deposition process is...

Electrical resistivity of ferromagnetic nickel and iron based alloys

We discuss in detail the theoretical basis for the two-band model with spinmixing which has been widely applied to the analysis of the transport properties of ferromagnetic metals. This model is shown to have much more general validity than the original presentation suggested. The model is then applied to resistivity data in Ni and Fe based alloys to obtain a consistent set of parameters for th...
