Abstract

In this research, we introduce a new process for the consolidation of different types of powders such as metal and ceramic powders by using a magnetic pulsed compaction (MPC). The successful consolidation of many kinds of powers including nanopowder by MPC has been presented. A wide range of experimental studies were carried out for characterizing mechanical properties and microstructure of the MPCed materials. It was found that effective properties of high strength and full density maintaining nanoscal microstructure were achieved. finally, optimization of the compaction parameters and sintering conditions could lead to the good consolidation of powders (metal, ceramic, nano-powder) with higher density, and even further enhanced mechanical properties.
