Effect of SPS consolidation parameters on submicron Cu and Cu–CNT composites for thermal management

High strength-high conductivity carbon nanotube-copper wires with bimodal grain size distribution by spark plasma sintering and wire-drawing

“…Cu and CNT-Cu cylinders (diameter 8 mm and length 33 mm) were prepared by SPS (PNF 2 -Toulouse, Dr. Sinter 2080, SPS Syntex Inc., Japan) using 8 mm inner diameter WC/Co dies according to a procedure described elsewhere [12], changing only the heating rates: 25°C·min No phase change such as carbide formation was detected by X-ray diffraction in agreement with other works [13,16,17]. The cylinders relative density (Archimedes' method) is equal to 94 ± 1% (U samples) and 88 ± 2% (B samples).…”

Fabrication, characterization, and mechanical properties of spark plasma sintered Al–BN nanoparticle composites

“…Spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique was employed for the Al-BNNPs composite fabrication. Compared to other powder metallurgy methods, SPS, due to a direct pulse current, allowed one to synthesize more dense materials [23] and, therefore, was successfully used for the fabrication of various composites [24,25].…”

High Temperature Oxidation Resistance of Ni22Cr11Al Bond Coat Produced by Spark Plasma Sintering as Thermal Barrier Coatings

“…However, as reported in Figure 11, XRD analysis performed on the surface of oxidized samples reveals the presence of alumina and other oxides such as Cr 2 O 3 , spinel-like compounds like NiO, NiCr 2 O 4 which are non-protective oxides [24][25][26]. It is well established that while the formation of slow-growing oxides alumina has to be maintained to prevent oxidation of the super alloy substrate, the presence of mixed oxides like spinels should be avoided as they grow too fast to produce protective scale [26][27][28][29].…”
