The behaviour of Ce-containing zirconolites in hot isostatically pressed (HIPed) materials is complex, characterised by redox interactions between the metallic HIP canister that result reduction Ce4+ to Ce3+. In this work, a glass–ceramic composition 70 wt.% CaZr0.9Ce0.1Ti2O7 ceramic 30 Na2Al2Si6O16 glass was produced (approx. 170 cm3 canister) examine extent material–canister interaction. A co...

The influences of age hardening and HIP (Hot Isostatic Pressing) on the mechanical properties of A356 (Al 7Si 0.6 Mg) casting alloys were studied. Cast bars were homogenized, heated and maintained at a temperature of 540°C for a duration of 2 hours, followed by rapid cooling in a polymeric solution. The castings were age hardened at 180°C for a duration of 4 hours before being subjected to HIP ...

A. Eksi, Faculty of Engineering and Architecture, Çukurova University, Adana, Turkey, M. K. Kulekci, Faculty of Technical Education, Mersin University, Tarsus, Turkey In this study hardness and densification behaviour of copper and bronze powders under wet bag cold isostatic and uniaxial die pressing processes are examined. In uniaxial pressing the specimens were compacted up to a pressure of 8...
