The healing behavior of shrinkage cavity inside the cast Ti6Al4V alloy during hot isostatic pressing (HIP) was investigated experimentally by interrupted tests. X-ray micro computed tomography used to record morphology changes before and after pressing. two-dimensional geometry obtained microCT scan in simulation study evolution real Shrinkage cavities, porosity small gas pores can be effective...

Films of titanium nitride deposited by physical vapor deposition on 304 L stainless steel substrates were hot isostatic pressed (HIP) under 150 MPa at 550 °C. To study the effects of this treatment on the microstructure of those films, X-ray diffraction analyses, Rutherford Backscattering spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy were performed. Surface hardness, a...
