During the recent years powder processing technologies have gained much attention due to the less energy consumption and recyclable powders. Manufacturing of complicated parts by the conventional powder metallurgy (PM) method is hard due to the uniaxial pressure, which leads to the low design flexibility. In order to prevail these constraints, powder injection molding (PIM) process, which inclu...

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...

Copper-zirconium alloys with high conductivity were produced using powder metallurgy. Two-steps manufacturing process, containing mechanical alloying followed by hot pressing, was applied in achieving improved and physical properties of Cu-Zr alloy. In this paper, the influence boron on studied Cu-1Zr (wt.%) Cu-1.1Zr-0.3B systems. Scanning electron microscopy, laser nanoparticle sizer, computed...

Rhombohedral-cubic transformation in Bi2Te3 doped-Pb1-xGexTe alloys is presented. Samples of Bi2Te3 doped Pb1-xGexTe were prepared by powder metallurgy approach. These powder samples were examined by high-temperature XRD and SEM/EDS. A bulk (pressed powder) cylindrical specimen was used for dilatometery characterizations. According to the XRD examinations it seems that upon increasing the tempe...

Near-stoichiometric NiTi was foamed in the solid state at elevated temperatures through creep expansion of highpressure argon pores previously entrapped during powder consolidation. A sample with 17% porosity was found to be superelastic up to a compressive stress of 800 MPa.
