Effect of heating mode on sinterability of carbonyl iron compacts

Abstract: In recent years, microwave processing has gained wide acceptance as a novel method for sintering metal powders. As compared to conventional sintering, microwave sintering provides rapid and volumetric heating involving conversion of electromagnetic energy into thermal energy within the material. This results in finer microstructures, thereby providing improved mechanical properties and quality of the products. This study examines the dependence of densification, microstructure and mechanical properties on the … Show more

“…With regard to pore morphology, no difference in distribution and shape of the pores was noticed between the samples produced by CS and MWS. More rounded pores in microwave sintered samples, reported previously, 22,23 were not observed in microstructures of SS and composite samples produced in the present work.…”

“…The fast rate of heating and cooling in the microwave sintering process forms refined grains in the microstructure. The cavities or pores are significantly less in the microwave sintering process due to the broad area of metal contact [7]. Graphite, when added with Fe-Cu alloy, acts as a barrier for Cu in grain boundary penetration.…”

“…Microwave sintering has been used widely for sintering of ceramics and hard metals, until Roy et.al 8 showed effective coupling of microwaves and metals in powder form. Later on many researchers have reported microwave sintering of many compacts fabricated through powder metallurgy and alloyed compositions (steel, stainless steel, copper, Al, Ni, Mo Co, Ti, Sn, etc) to nearly full density with improved mechanical properties [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21] . Spark plasma sintering (SPS) incorporates pressure to form solid powder in the presence of a pulsed direct current during the consolidation of powder in a graphite die.…”
