Densification of TiO2Nano Powder by Magnetic Pulsed Compaction

Compaction of Commercially Pure Titanium Powder by Friction Powder Compaction Process

A new friction powder compaction (FPC) process is introduced for compacting commercially pure titanium powder. The FPC process is very simple and energy-efficient since it requires only a rotating tool plunged into an aluminum plate with a hole filled with titanium powder, and no external heat source is necessary. The sintering of the powder is mainly achieved by the friction heat and pressing ...

Increased volumetric hydrogen uptake of MOF-5 by powder densification

The metal-organic framework MOF-5 has attracted significant attention due to its ability to store large quantities of H2 by mass, up to 10 wt.% absolute at 70 bar and 77 K. On the other hand, sinceMOF-5 is typically obtained as a bulk powder, it exhibits a lowvolumetric density andpoor thermal conductivitydboth ofwhichareundesirable characteristics for ahydrogen storage material. Here we explor...

Thermodynamics of densification of powder compact

This paper established a necessary condition for the sintering of powder compacts by examining the total free energy balance in terms of the particle size, neck size and contact number. The thermodynamic analysis of the proposed model clarifies the relation of shrinkage (q) of powder compact-contact angle (f)-relative density at a given dihedral angle (fe) of a grain boundary. Faster densificat...

DENSIFICATION AND MICROSTRUCTURE CHARACTERISTICS OF A PREALLOYED ALPHA BRASS POWDER PROCESSED BY LIQUID PHASE SINTERING

The rapidly solidified prealloyed alpha brass powder with a size range of 40 to 100 μm produced by water atomization process was consolidated using liquid phase sintering process. The relationships between sintering temperature, physic-mechanical properties and microstructural characteristics were investigated. Maximum densification was obtained at 930 °C, under 600 MPa compacting pressure,...
