  1. 1. Novel approaches for achieving full density powder metallurgy steels

    Author : Maheswaran Vattur Sundaram; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Cr- and Mo-alloyed PM steels; vacuum sintering; high density; full density; hot isostatic pressing.; cold isostatic pressing; liquid phase sintering; master alloy; double pressing-double sintering; powder metallurgy steels; sintering; water atomised powder;

    Abstract : Powder metallurgy (PM) is one of the most resource-efficient methods for manufacturing structural components with complex shapes. The utilisation of the metal powder to shape the components allows to minimise material waste and increase energy efficiency. READ MORE

  2. 2. Surface Characteristics of Water Atomized Pre-alloyed Steel Powders and their effect on Sintering

    Author : Dimitris Chasoglou; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; spinel oxides; sintering; Cr-pre-alloyed powder; reduction; sintering atmosphere; surface oxide; fractography; XPS; oxidation; AES; EDX; carbothermal reaction; SEM; Powder metallurgy;

    Abstract : Powder Metallurgy (PM) is an efficient method, in terms of cost and raw material utilization, for the production of structural parts that have strict dimensional tolerances and complex geometries. In the common processing route, steel powder is fabricated by water atomization and then pressed and sintered into the final component. READ MORE

  3. 3. ROLE OF SURFACE OXIDES IN SINTERING OF CHROMIUM-ALLOYED STEEL POWDER

    Author : Henrik Karlsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; water atomisation; surface analysis; sintering; chromium-alloyed steel.; Powder metallurgy; surface reactions; surface; surface oxide; SEM; XRD; AES; XPS;

    Abstract : During water-atomisation and handling of steel powder the surface inevitably oxidises. The surface bound oxide is an important factor in the processing of powder metallurgical (PM) steels, especially in case the powder contains elements forming stable oxides, such as Cr, Mn, and Si.

  4. 4. Optimizing liquid phase sintering of ferrous powder metallurgical materials

    Author : Henrik Borgström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; surface chemical analysis high speed steel; Vacuum annealing; nitrogen alloying; liquid phase sintering;

    Abstract : The properties of powder metallurgical, PM, components are dependent on that the dilemma of full density and suitable microstructure is resolved. Whilst it is often possible to achieve full density, it may or may not coincide with a suitable microstructure. READ MORE

  5. 5. Thermal and Photon Stimulated Reactions on Metal Particles

    Author : Kristina Wettergren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Plasmons; Platinum Clusters; Platinum Nanoparticles; Hydrogen Oxidation; Sodium; Silver Nanoparticles; Nitric Oxide; Photodesorption; Sintering; Graphite; Water;

    Abstract : The interaction between molecules and solid surfaces influence our daily lives in many ways. One important example is heterogeneous catalysis where surface reactions, for example, are used for production of chemicals and exhaust after-treatment. READ MORE
