Solution Precursor Plasma Spray (SPPS) technique is an emergent technique which offers significant performance advantages with various functional coatings like YSZ, ZnFe2O4, LSM, metal-doped ZnO, etc. Apart from the above capabilities, efforts towards development of an innovative hybrid approach through simultaneous deposition of powder and solution resulted in coatings with unique microstructu...

This research is focused on the influence of processing temperature on titanium matrix composites reinforced through Ti, Al, and B₄C reactions. In order to investigate the effect of Ti-Al based intermetallic compounds on the properties of the composites, aluminum powder was incorporated into the starting materials. In this way, in situ TixAly were expected to form as well as TiB and TiC. The sp...

Data regarding bulk polycrystalline nickel samples obtained by powder metallurgy using Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) are presented, with a special emphasis on the influence of a cold isostatic pre-compaction on the resulting morphologies and subsequent mechanical properties. Three types of initial powders are used, nanometric powders, micrometric powders and a mixture of the formers. For each ty...

With the increasingly development of automobile, electronics, aviation, spaceflight and other industries, it has put forward higher and higher requirements on the quality of molybdenum powder metallurgy products. Therefore, it is required that molybdenum powder should have better performance in chemical composition, physical morphology, average particle size, particle size distribution, apparen...
