Copper-based microcomposites fabricated by powder metallurgy with subsequent plastic deformation have received increasing attention over recent years. These microcomposites possess good electrical conductivity in combination with high mechanical properties. The present study aims to explore potential technical merits in developing a prealloyed powder metallurgy copper based composites with silica sand nanoparticles reinforcement. Relevant mechanical properties and electrical conductivity improvements are the main targets. A copper based composite with 5, 10, 15 and 20 wt.% of silica sand nanoparticles were developed through the powder metallurgy process. It was observed that by addition of silica sand nanoparticles with 20% increased the hardness up to 143HV. Optimum electrical conductivity of the composites was achieved in the 15 wt.% silica sand nanoparticles. Advanced particle rearrangement mechanism due to homogeneous and fine distribution of silica sand nanoparticles into pore sites of the composites was also observed. The silica sand nanoparticles composites properties that are much more surface-related seen to be improved convincingly compared with the bulk controlled.

Fe-Mn alloys are prospective degradable materials for coronary stents. Several methods and strategies are investigated to produce excellence properties for this application, such as addition of alloying elements. The study is focused on the corrosion behavior of novel Fe-Mn alloys, i.e. Fe-25Mn-1C and Fe-35Mn-1C fabricated by powder metallurgy process. Addition of carbon is intended to obtain the phase that has ability to easily degradable without compromising its mechanical properties. The results show that austenite phase formed from this process and corrosion rate increased in proportion with the manganese addition from 32.2 mpy (Fe-25Mn-1C) to 43.7 mpy (Fe-35Mn-1C) using polarization methods. The presence of porosity, which cannot be extinguished by sintering, makes the degradation favorable. The results of this study indicate that these alloys have prospective properties to be applied as degradable biomaterials.
