Preparation of CrSi₂ Powders by Solid-State Reaction between Chromium and Silicon Powders with Addition of Chlorides

Titanium foams produced by solid-state replication of NaCl powders

Open-celled titanium foams were fabricated by vacuum hot pressing of a blend of Ti and NaCl powders followed by NaCl removal in water. Densification kinetics of the Ti/NaCl blends are measured at 780 ◦C at various pressures (30–50MPa), NaCl volume fractions (30–70%) and NaCl powder sizes (50–500 m). As compared to pure Ti powders, densification kinetics of the blends is faster for relative dens...

Field Expedient Preparation of Black Powders

PREPARATION AND SINTERING OF W-20%Wt Cu COMPOSITE POWDERS PRODUCED BY CO-PRECIPITATION METHOD

Abstract: materials can be fabricated by sintering of W-Cu composite powders. In this research W-20%wt Cu composite powderswas synthesized via a co-precipitation method. Precipitate obtained from a mixture of copper nitrate and ammoniumparatungstate (APT) in distilled water contained W-Cu compounds. This precipitate was washed, dried and calcinedat 550 of dried precipitate powder was determined...

Synthesis of HfB2 Powders by Carbothermal Reduction

In this research, solid state carbothermal synthesis of HfB2 Nano powders was investigated. For this purpose, HfO2,H3BO3, carbon active or phenolic resin were used as raw materials for carbothermal reaction. After 2-4 hours of milling the raw materials by a planetary ball in an ethanol media, the mixture was heat dried and pressed in to disks under pressure of 20-30 bar. The disks were then pla...

Synthesis & Characterization of CaB4O7 Powder by Solid-State Reaction

The synthesis of calcium tetraborate was investigated in a temperature ranging from 800℃ to 900℃ using the solid-state reaction method. The synthesis was done using ammonium tetraborate tetrahydrate as the source of boron. At temperatures of 800 ℃ and 880 ℃, the mixed phases from different compounds were formed. At the optimum temperature of 840℃, the mixed phase was only composed of meta and t...
