Powder Metallurgy

The metal powders may be produced in a number of different ways. In metals where the intercrystalline material is brittle enough, they may be ground in a ball mill or eddy mill. The fineness of such a powder is more or less controlled by the grain size of the original metal.

Measurements of the Magnetic Permeabilities of the Iron-Manganese Alloy System Prepared by the Methods of Powder Metallurgy

Powder metallurgy is a branch of metallurgy which produces metallic compacts in their final forms by means of pressure and heat-treatment from the pow­ders. The products of powder metallurgy are being used in our daily lives quite often. For example, the tungsten wires in the electric bulbs to the silver-tin fillings of our teeth.

Production of Iron-Tin Compacts by Powder Metallurgy and a Synopsis of their Principle Properties

This thesis is concerned primarily with the production of metal powder compacts of iron and tin. In producing these compacts, the effects of process­ing variables on some of the essential properties of the pellets made were investigated.

The Corrosion Resistance of Iron-Tin Compacts as Produced by Powder Metallurgy

The art of Powder Metallurgy deals with the preparation of metal powders and their utilization. As a more pertinent definition, the following has been suggest­ed: "Powder Metallurgy is the art of producing metal powders and shaped objects from individual, mixed, or alloyed metal powders, with or without the inclusion of non-metallic consti­tuents".

Hardness and Electrical Resistivity of Copper-Iron Powder Metal Compacts

Although powder metallurgical methods have been used for years to fabricate tungsten and platinum, very little scientific data have been recorded until the beginning of this century. A large percentage of all commercial production at present is based upon past practice rather than upon scientific knowledge.

Some Preliminary Investiagtions of the Magnetic Permeabilities of Alloys of the Ferromagnetic Metals

The problem presented for this thesis was an investigation of the magnetic properties of the alloys produced by the methods of powder metallurgy. The question behind this was the correlation of the magnetic properties with the bonding properties and with the diffusion of the constituents.

Porosity and Oil Absorption Properties of Metal Compacts of Copper - Tin - Graphite

Powder metallurgy, the most recent innovation in met­allurgical process, is not a new art; although not until recently did it become a matter of general interest, this being due not only to the products formed but also to the possibilities of future developments. The manufacture and application of metal powders is now beginning to take a position as a recognized part of the science of metallurgy.

Aluminum - Bronze Compacts and their Possible Use as a Bearing Material

In the modern aspect of powder metallurgy, the first use of a sintering process was in making filaments for incandescent electric lamps.In the short while from the day of Edison to the pres­ent, the science of working with metal powders has advanced by leaps and bounds.

Magnesium - Tellurium by Powder Methods

Today considerable work is being done in the compressed metal powder field which is gradually ob­taining prominence as a valuable branch of metallurgy. The mass of data, however, has led to many different ideas on the results of sintering.

Electrical Resistivity Measurements of Powder Metal Compacts

This work, as it was originally planned, was the arranging of an apparatus whereby electrical resistivity measurements could be made on powder compacts. It was also to include measurements on a series of copper-nickel compacts both before and after sintering.
