Spark plasma sintering was carried out to densify Ni-alloy doped with Pt powder at temperatures ranging between 1273 and 1323 K in order to obtain a variety of microstructures. Homogeneous distribution Pt and full densification were achieved in a short time, and the overall processing time not was exceeding 30 min via SPS process. Phase constitutions and microstructures and porosity evaluation were investigated by using scanning electron microscopy, chemical analysis and X-ray diffraction. It was found that two new phases ζ-PtAl2 and α-NiPt (Al). The set conditions are very promising from an energy-saving viewpoint; total powder consolidation was obtained per a decrease of 200 °C in the sintering temperature by using spark plasma sintering.

Tungsten carbide (WC) based composites are usually produced with cobalt, but this binder has the inconvenience of shortage, unstable price and potential carcinogenicity. The objective of this study was to develop WC composite with intermetallic Fe3Al matrix. Powders of WC, iron and aluminum, with composition WC-10 wt% Fe3Al, and 0.5 wt% zinc stearate were milled in a vibration mill for 6 h and sintered in a SPS (spark plasma sintering) furnace at 1150 °C for 8 min under pressure of 30 MPa. Measured density and microstructure analysis showed that the composite had significant densification during the (low-temperature, short time) sintering, and X-ray diffraction analysis showed the formation of intermetallic Fe3Al. Analysis by Vickers indentation resulted in hardness of 11.2 GPa and fracture toughness of 24.6 MPa.m1/2, showing the feasibility of producing dense WC-Fe3Al composite with high mechanical properties using the SPS technique.

This paper describes the influence of sintering temperature on phase composition and microstructure of paper-derived Ti3AlC2 composites fabricated by spark plasma sintering. The composites were sintered at 100 MPa pressure in the temperature range of 1150-1350 °C. Phase composition and microstructure were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The multiphase structure was observed in the sintered composites consisting of Ti3AlC2, Ti2AlC, TiC and Al2O3 phases. The decomposition of the Ti3AlC2 phase into Ti2AlC and TiC carbide phases was observed with temperature rise. The total content of Ti3AlC2 and Ti2AlC phases was reduced from 84.5 vol.% (1150 °C) to 69.5 vol.% (1350 °C). The density of composites affected by both the content of TiC phase and changes in porosity.

Sintering Method

This study aims at producing porous Ti filled with biodegradable materials for biomedical implants by means of spark plasma sintering method (SPS). To improve bone fixation and to obtain appropriate Young’s modulus as a medical implant material, we applied -tri calcium phosphate (-TCP) to the Ti-based composite. Ti/-TCP powder mixtures were sintered by SPS under applied stress of 45MPa with various temperatures and holding time. Vickers hardness (Hv) of obtained composite increased with increasing the holding time up to 10 min, and saturated hardness was approximately 750 Hv, which is extremely higher than that of bulk Ti. Hardness also increased as sintering temperature increased up to 1473 K. From the results of microstructure observations by scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDXS), O- and P- containing Ti surrounded around Ti particle, and O diffused into Ti particle to a certain extent. X-ray diffraction results indicated several kinds of Ti-O and/or Ti-P formed in the specimen. Results indicated that it is the brittle phases formed during sintering that increased the hardness.

Combining high energy ball milling and spark plasma sintering is one of the most promising technologies in materials science. The mechanical alloying process enables the production of nanostructured composite powders that can be successfully spark plasma sintered in a very short time, while preserving the nanostructure and enhancing the mechanical properties of the composite. Composites with MAX phases are among the most promising materials. In this study, Ti/SiC composite powder was produced by high energy ball milling and then consolidated by spark plasma sintering. During both processes, Ti3SiC2, TiC and Ti5Si3 phases were formed. Scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction study showed that the phase composition of the spark plasma sintered composites consists mainly of Ti3SiC2 and a mixture of TiC and Ti5Si3 phases which have a different indentation size effect. The influence of the sintering temperature on the Ti-SiC composite structure and properties is defined. The effect of the Ti3SiC2 MAX phase grain growth was found at a sintering temperature of 1400–1450 °C. The indentation size effect at the nanoscale for Ti3SiC2, TiC+Ti5Si3 and SiC-Ti phases is analyzed on the basis of the strain gradient plasticity theory and the equation constants were defined.

In this study, we focused on the sintering performance of Ti-4.5Al-3V-2Mo-2Fe (SP-700) and mechanical properties of SP-700 reinforced with titanium boride (TiB/SP-700) fabricated by spark plasma sintering (SPS). TiB whiskers formed in titanium by a solid-state reaction of titanium and TiB2 particles were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. The TiB/SP-700 was sintered at temperatures of 1073, 1173, and 1273 K and a pressure of 70 MPa for 10, 30, and 50 min. The volume fraction of TiB ranged from 1.7 vol.% to 19.9 vol.%. Tensile tests of TiB/SP-700 were conducted at room temperature, and the effect of TiB volume fraction on the tensile properties was investigated.

TiAl alloy with a composition of Ti-43Al-5V-4Nb-Y (at.%) was prepared by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The TiAl powders were sintered between 650°C and 1300°C for 5 min under different loads. With the increasing of the temperature, the diffusion of the elements can be observed. Full compaction is achieved in a short period of time and the overall processing duration does not exceed 30 min. A fully lamellar structure was seen in the TiAl alloy after heat treatment. The microstructures of the samples were determined by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Their mechanical properties were evaluated by tensile tests performed at room temperature

In this study, the solid-state reaction to form Mg2Si bulky materials via spark plasma sintering (SPS) process was discussed. Elemental powder mixture of Mg-33.33mol%Si was refined and consolidated as green compacts by repeated plastic working (RPW) SPS was performed to synthesize and sinter magnesium silicide at 1100K from the RPWed compact. The only peaks of Mg2Si, not Mg and Si, were detected by X-ray diffraction analysis. Mg2Si bulky intermetallic began to shrink above 800K during SPS process, and its densification significantly occurred. The density of SPSed Mg2Si bulk material is about 100% of the theoretically relative one.

Precipitation of secondary intermetallic phases in aluminium alloy Al7075 sintered by spark plasma sintering method from powders milled at room and cryogenic temperature was studied by X-ray powder diffraction. Deformation energy stored during cryogenic milling influences the precipitation in Al7075 alloy. High temperature X-ray diffraction experiment revealed the potential for further precipitation strengthening of samples prepared by spark plasma sintering of milled powders. It was established that the correction of absorption edge of metal Kβ-line filter used for laboratory sources greatly enhances the precision of quantitative Rietveld analysis as well as the determination of precipitates’ crystallite sizes.

Aluminum-10 wt% TiO2 metal matrix composites were fabricated with conventional, microwave, and spark plasma sintering processes. Aluminum and nano-sized TiO2 powders were mixed using a high-energy mixer, and the sintering process was done at 450℃ by spark plasma sintering and 600℃ under both microwave and conventional heating. The results showed microwave sintering led to form Al3Ti intermetallic compounds with flaky shape, while in the conventional heating at the same sintering temperature, Al3Ti was formed and confirmed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope investigations. Moreover, the nano-sized TiO2 particles as reinforcement with no additional phase were obtained by spark plasma sintering at the lowest sintering temperature. The maximum bending strength of 254 ± 12 MPa and Vickers hardness of 235 ± 13 were measured for samples sintered in microwave as a consequence of Al3Ti formation. The SEM and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analyses showed uniform distribution of Al3Ti particles in the microstructure of microwave sintered samples and nonuniform distribution of agglomerated Al3Ti particles and porosities in samples sintered by spark plasma sintering and conventional heating.
