| Research Abstract |
Densification and microstructural development of stainless steel powder during hot powder vehicle compaction was investigated. The preheated powder preform, vacuum encapsuled in a borosilicate glass, was compacted in a steel die using preheatedalumina granules as a pressure transmitting medium. The condition for the full-densification was determined as a function of pressure and temperature. The increase in pressure was more effective than in temperature. Three microstructural features were odserved during the compacting process; Solutioning of dendritic structure, recrystallization and normal grain growth, which in turn was found to be mainly dependent of preheating temperature. It has been found that a submicron-sized microstructure is formed during the recrystallization stage. the densification mechanism of the present compaction process has been discussed on a concept of pressure sintering map.
