This work aimed to investigate the effect of different sintering routes on properties of Ni-Al2O3 membrane. Alumina powder was mixed with 10 wt% nickel powder by dried ball-milling. Then, the mixture powder was uniaxially pressed to a bar shape and sintered via different sintering conditions. First route, the Ni-Al2O3 specimen was sintered at 1300°C for 2 h under air and then reduced at 900°C for 2 h under H2 atmosphere. Second route, the specimen was sintered at 1300°C for 2 h under argon. After sintering process, the physical and mechanical properties of membrane obtained from two routes were compared and discussed.

In this paper, a new type of Ti3SiC2/Cu composites with the volume fractions of 30% Ti3SiC2 particle was prepared by hot pressing and vacuum sintering respectively. The effects of sintering temperature and holding time on the density, resistance and Vickers hardness of Cu-30vol%Ti3SiC2 composite were investigated. The results show that the mechanical properties of the composites prepared by hot pressing are better than that prepared by vacuum sintering. The relative densities of Cu-30vol% Ti3SiC2 composites are rather high in suitable sintering conditions. It achieved 100% for the composites prepared by hot pressing at 930°C for 2h, and 98.4% for the composites prepared by vacuum sintering at 1250°C for 1h. At the same time, the maximum Vickers hardness reached 1735MPa at 900°C by hot pressing. The resistance and Vickers hardness of the composites decreased with an increase in sintering temperature, whereas the density increased. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used to observe the microstructure of the composites. The relationship between microstructure and mechanical properties was discussed.

Recently, sintering joint using Ag-nanohas been attracting attention as a new joint method to replace the solder. However, the joint layer would contain a lot of voids after sintering processes. Since the voids affect mechanical property, the proper sintering conditions have to be selected in order to reduce these voids. In this research, the authors focus on the effect of pressure conditions at sintering process. Then, by creating FEM models including voids from cross section image of the joint layer and carrying out tensile analysis, the mechanical property of the joint layer has been acquired. Using this approach, the influence of pressure conditions on the mechanical properties is revealed.

Pd-Cu-Ce composite membrane was prepared using an electroless plating technique. The effects of temperature and pressure on permeation were studied. The resistance to sulfidation was examined by exposing alloys to simulated syngas containing a combined gas of H2 and H2S. The alloys showed sings of slight sufidation at the 0.1% H2S exposure level.

The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of starting powder granulometry and sintering conditions on the morphological structure and mechanical properties of injectable hydroxyapaptite (HAp) microspheres. The mechanical properties of the microspheres were evaluated, to investigate if their integrity could be maintained during the injection process. To obtain microspheres, HAp powders were dispersed in a sodium alginate solution and spherical particles were prepared by droplet extrusion under a co-axial air stream, coupled with ionotropic gelation in the presence of Ca2+. This was followed by a sintering process at various temperatures and times. The morphology of microspheres was observed under SEM, diameter measurements were performed in an optical microscope and the compression strength was evaluated using a texture analyzer. Finally, microspheres prepared using lower granulometry HAp powders and sintered at 1200 °C for 1 hour presented the best properties and were selected as the most suitable for the envisaged application.
