Abstract Near net shaping ceramic injection molding process of (MgCoNiZnCu)O high entropy oxides were conducted using commercial precursor oxide powders. Through ball milling, internal mixing, injection molding, solvent and thermal debinding as well as final sintering process, the ceramic products would be obtained with little machining. Compacts prepared are single rock-salt phase based on XRD and EDS Mapping results. Meanwhile, with the increasing of sintering temperature from 900 ℃ to 1050 ℃, particle diffusion rate and densification of samples becomes faster, which finally results relative density and fractured strength of sintered compacts reaching the highest (90.47 % and 77.98 MPa, respectively) in current work. The successfully synthesis of (MgCoNiZnCu)O through ceramic injection molding illustrates this near net shaping process could be a promising route for preparation of high entropy oxides.

Zirconia Ferrule is a key part for manufacturing fiber connectors. The ceramic injection molding (CIM) process of the optical ferrule was simulated with the commercial CAE software moldflow. In order to obtain the optimum results, the orthogonal method was introduced to discuss the influence of each parameter such as die temperature, melt temperature, ram speed and gate dimension with the two kinds of distribution layout system respectively. The simulation results show that the curved distribution runner system is more suitable than the rectangular distribution one in the optical ferrule molding. Moreover, the effect of gravity on the ceramic injection molding process was discussed for determining a more reasonable balanced runner system of the special designed two-plate mold with six die cavities. It was found that short shot occurred at the top of the die cavity while other five cavities were filled well in the original designed mold. And when the top die cavity’s round runner with section diameter of 4.0mm was increased to 4.17 mm, each cavity was balanced filled without short shot.

Titanium and its alloys have been widely used for medical and aerospace applications because of their excellent attributes of high specific strength, corrosion resistance, and biocompatibility. However, it is not easy to produce the complex shaped parts due to their poor castability and machinability. Metal injection molding (MIM) is one of suitable processing technique to produce the complex shaped parts in order to reduce the manufacturing cost. In this study, complex shaped Ti-6Al-4V compacts was prepared by MIM process for airplane application. The effects of high molecular binder content and different compact’s set-up during thermal debinding on the distortion of complex shaped compacts were measured and evaluated. The binder with 10 % APP (Atactic polypropylene) was found to have better shape retention for the parts. Furthermore the results indicate that high distortion occurs at early stage of thermal debinding process. The use of supports during thermal debinding can significantly reduce the distortion of the final parts.

With the capability of net shaping for complex 3D geometry, powder injection molding (PIM) is widely used for automotive parts, electronics and medical industry. In this study, an ultrasonic dental scaler tip produced by machining process was redesigned for the PIM process. An injection mold was designed and machined to produce the dental scaler tip by the PIM process. The mold design was aided by CAE analysis. A PIM feedstock was made of SUS316L powder and a wax based binder. The filling balance in the mold was checked by a short shot test with LDPE and the PIM feedstock. Production capability of the PIM process for the dental scaler tip was examined with the mold. Although there were minor problems such as a discoloration around the gate and a flashing at the air vent, the PIM process turned out to be an excellent substitute for machining process to manufacture the ultrasonic dental scaler tip.

In the illuminant industry, for producing arc tube parts for high intensity discharge lamps the applied method is the ceramic injection molding. The ceramic arc tube parts are made of high purity alumina powder. By producing ceramic parts, one of the most critical step is to optimizing the injection molding process, [1] but first of all we need to know the properties of injection molding raw material, because later the molding process will be optimized for this material, to decrease the amount of cracked ceramics.For producing ceramic arc tube parts (plugs), there are used two different major components for producing injection molding raw material (feedstock): high purity alumina powder as the main component, and an organic paraffin wax as a binder material. It is expressly important to know the material, physical and chemical properties of these components, since mainly these have affect on the homogenity of feedstock, and therefore on the quality of end product. [3]In this research, both of the main components and the moldable raw material was investigated by visual, physical, chemical and thermal methods. As most important and main statement, the researchers found that the dynamic viscosity of the injection molding raw material depends on the used mixer equipment and the applied deformation velocity.Applied analitycal methods were laser granulometry, differential thermal analysis, and rheological analysis.
