During liquid phase sintering, microstructural coarsening takes place. One mechanism by which this occurs is Ostwald ripening.
Alternatively, particle coalescence also leads to a concomitant reduction in the solid particle surface area per unit volume.
In isolated structures in which particle-particle contacts are made, the rate of coarsening by coalescence is limited by the
time between particle contacts, for this is long compared to the time to fuse two particles together. In skeletal structures
the “coalescence time” limits coarsening by coalescence since this is long in comparison to the time between contacts. Expressions
for the rate of particle coarsening are developed for the different mechanisms and different particle morphologies. The results
of these calculations are combined with the microstructure maps developed in Part I of this paper to refine these maps so
that they predict both the morphology developed and the dominant mechanism of coarsening in liquid phase sintered systems. 相似文献

During liquid phase sintering, solid particles make contact and can subsequently coalesce into one particle. This coalescence
phenomena can affect the type of microstructure formed and its subsequent coarsening behavior during liquid phase sintering.
The mechanism of particle coalescence is assumed to be the liquid state analog of the evaporation-condensation mechanism of
sintering. In this work, a detailed study of the geometry appropriate for analysis of the coalescence phenomena during liquid
phase sintering is made. It is found that in the early stages of particle coalescence, the neck between the particles acts
as a geometrical barrier to diffusion and the neck between the particles grows approximately ast
1/5,i.e., the same kinetics appropriate for solid state sintering are obtained. At longer times, the neck area no longer restricts
diffusive flow and at
1/6 dependency of neck growth is obtained. The use of numerical techniques also allows the analysis to be carried out with fewer
geometrical restrictions than in the original analysis of the evaporation-condensation mechanism. 相似文献

During liquid phase sintering solid particles move about within the liquid and make contact with each other. Microstructural
examination of liquid phase sintered alloys clearly indicates that some of these contacts lead to particle coalescence even
in systems in which wetting of the solid by the liquid is presumed to occur. Under these circumstances, the grain boundary
formed by the particles must have a rather low energy and hence, misorientation. In this study, attention is directed at the
problem of calculating the probability of a collision between particles that lead to the formation of a low angle grain boundary
and hence, coalescence. By making simple but physically plausible assumptions about the nature of low angle grain boundaries,
the coalescence probabilityp

The kinetics of interparticle contacts formation during the liquid-phase sintering of unlike materials under the action of
laser irradiation was investigated. Trios of particles arranged in a row according to the schemes glass—polymer glass, metal—polymer—metal,
and metal—glass—metal were sintered. The processes of particle approach and liquid neck formation between particles were studied.
Possibilities for the manufacture of powder components with polymer and glass binders by the use of selective laser sintering
followed by heat treatment are considered].

Particle growth during liquid phase sintering of Fe-30 wt% Cu and Fe-60 wt% Cu was measured and compared with a recently developed coalescence theory. Measured normalized particle size distribution, time-dependence of average particle size and dependence of growth rate on solid phase volume fraction agree well with calculations based on the assumption of a diffusion-controlled coalescence process where all component particles are assumed to have equal coalescence frequency. Slight discrepancies can be explained as the results of nonspherical particle shape and of favored coalescence opportunity for larger particles. 相似文献

During coarsening of high-volume-fraction solid-liquid mixtures, a solid skeleton is formed. Electron back-scattered diffraction
(EBSD) analysis of Sn particles in a liquid Pb-Sn eutectic is employed to yield quantitative evidence for the mechanisms that
are operative during skeletal formation. We find that the grain boundaries (GBs) play a substantial role in setting the skeletal
structure; however, they do not alter the mechanisms for skeletal coarsening. Particles do not rotate into low-energy configurations
to minimize the GB energy in the solid-liquid mixture. Thus, there is no particle rotation-induced coalescence. We find that
coalescence is not prevalent; Ostwald ripening is the primary mechanism for coarsening in this system. Our data suggest a
model for skeletal formation and the origin of the skeletal stability. This model indicates that the primary factor in determining
skeletal stability is the number of GB contacts. We recommend two methods to tailor the number of GBs and to engineer the
properties of these solid-liquid mixtures. 相似文献

The evolution of microstructure in liquid phase sintered (LPS) alloys as it occurs in a gravity environment is discussed. If the solid phase volume fraction (Vp) is initially sufficiently low, a dispersion of isolated solid particles within the liquid develops first. These isolated particles settle at a velocity approximately equal to the Stokes' velocity and, in a finite container, the settling leads to the formation of a solid skeleton when Vp reaches a critical value. This value is ca. 0.20 for Fe-Cu LPS alloys and because the transition to the skeleton structure is dictated by morphological considerations, we expect this critical value of Vp is system independent. Once formed, a skeletal structure can continue to settle. The settling mechanism is controlled by “extrication” of solid particles from the skeleton and their subsequent directional flow within the liquid as a result of the differing solid and liquid densities. Since particle extrication is a relatively slow process, the “skeletal” settling rate is much reduced in comparison to free settling rates. Particle extrication times are system dependent; they are much less in W-(Fe-Ni-Cu) alloys than in Fe-Cu alloys. The differences are believed related to the variations in average neck size to average particle size ratio between the two materials. Both settling velocities in isolated and skeletal structures and the parameters defining the transitional behavior are discussed in terms of system physiochemistry and morphology. 相似文献

The microstructure and aging behavior of a nanocrystalline Al-Cu-Mg-Fe-Ni-Sc alloy was studied. The nanocrystalline powders
were produced by milling at liquid nitrogen temperature and then consolidated using spark plasma sintering (SPS). The microstructure
after SPS consisted of a bimodal aluminum grain structure (coarse-grained and fine-grained regions), along with Al9FeNi and Al2CuMg particles dispersed throughout. The microstructure observed in the as-consolidated sample is rationalized on the basis
of high current densities that are generated during sintering. Solution treatment and aging of the SPS Al-Cu-Mg-Fe-Ni-Sc sample
resulted in softening instead of hardening. This observation can be explained by the reduced amount of Cu, Mg, and Si in solid
solution available to form S′ Al2CuMg due to the precipitation of Al7FeCu2 and Si-rich particles, and by the fact that rodlike S′ Al2CuMg particles could only precipitate out in the coarse-grained regions, greatly decreasing their influence on the hardness.
This lack of precipitation in the fine-grained region is argued to represent a new physical observation and is rationalized
on the basis of physical and thermodynamic effects. The nanocrystalline SPS Al-Cu-Mg-Fe-Ni-Sc sample was also extremely thermally
stable, retaining a fine-grained structure even after solution treatment at 530°C for 5 h. The observed thermal stability
is rationalized on the basis of solute drag and Zener pinning caused by the impurities introduced during the cryomilling process. 相似文献

The influence of particle size, presence of soluble impurities, and the development of solid-state polytype transitions in systems of nonmetallic crystalline particles on coalescence mechanisms during sintering is considered. The following cases that have not been studied previously are discussed. Coalescence is activated by oxygen during sintering fine plasma chemical powders of AlN, TiC, and TiN. Its mechanism may be considered as alloy formation realized by movement of a boundary between areas differing in oxygen concentration. Development of this coalescence governs the formation of collective grain growth centers. Polytype transitions in self-bonded SiC give rise to the occurrence of Ostwald coalescence accomplished as recrystallization by the grain in grain type. Polytype transitions in SiC and AlN may cause the growth of fine monopolytype grains at the expense of coarse grains consisting of a collection of multilayer polytypes. On the example of silicon-bonded SiC it is shown that during liquid-phase sintering of ceramic materials with solubility of solid phase in the liquid phase three types of Ostwald coalescence may be realized differing in the mass-transfer mechanisms: reprecipitation through the liquid phase (solution of carbon in silicon); joining of two or more single original SiC particles by a single-crystal shell forming as a result of crystallization of the condensed phase from the melt-solution; combined reprecipitation through a liquid phase and recrystallization by migration of boundaries between particles. 相似文献

Prealloyed powders subjected to supersolidus liquid phase sintering (SLPS) exhibit partial melting. A liquid phase forms along
the grain boundaries, at the interparticle neck region, or on the particle surface. Densification involves an increase in
the liquid volume fraction along with simultaneous coalescence of the particles. A two-particle model is developed that takes
into account an increasing liquid content with coalescence, as well as a shape change of the merging particles (initially
spher-ical). The variation in capillary force with processing parameters such as temperature and liquid volume fraction give
improved predictions over prior models. The model predicts that the capillary force is affected strongly by the amount of
liquid phase, wetting angle, and the shape of the coa-lescing particles. 相似文献

Regularities of sintering compacted SiO2 powder under the action of a CO2-laser are studied by experiment. Features are considered for rebuilding the structure of a powder body (particle regrouping, formation of interparticle contacts, joining of particles into conglomerates, evolution of the porous structure) in different stages of sintering (with different laser irradiation duration). Sintering is accomplished by a liquid-phase mechanism (by melting particles and joining solid unmelted cores by the liquid phase formed). The results obtained may be used for developing laser sintering methods for ceramic powders. 相似文献

A statistical approach has been applied to particle coarsening during liquid phase sintering assuming direct particle coalescence as basic growth mechanism instead of Ostwald ripening. The coalescence process controlled by diffusion through the melt results in an increase of the average particle size proportional to the cube root of sintering time. After a short initial sintering interval the particle size distribution approaches a unique normalized form which is considerably broader than forms predicted by Ostwald ripening theories. The effect of preferred coalescence possibilities for definite particle size ranges and the effect of concurrent coalescence and Ostwald ripening are treated and discussed. 相似文献

The morphological and compositional changes of grains have been investigated in the initial stage of liquid-phase sintering
of W-Mo-Ni-Fe powder compacts. Both large (5.4-μm) and small (1.3-μm) W powders have been used to vary their time of dissolution in the liquid matrix. When 8OW-10M0-7Ni-3Fe (wt pct) compacts
of fine (about 1- to 2-μm) Mo, Ni, and Fe and coarse (5.4-μm) W powders are liquid-phase sintered at 1500 °C, the Mo powder and a fraction of the W powder rapidly dissolve in the Ni-Fe
liquid matrix. The W-Mo grains (containing small amounts of Ni and Fe) nucleate in the matrix and grow while the W particles
slowly dissolve. In this transient initial stage of the liquid-phase sintering, duplex structures of coarse W-Mo grains and
fine W particles are obtained. As the W particles dissolve in the liquid matrix during the sintering, the W content in the
precipitated solid phase also increases. The dissolution of the small W particles is assessed to be driven partially by the
coherency strain produced by Mo diffusion at the surface. During sintering, the W particles continuously dissolve while the
W-Mo grains grow. When the compacts are prepared from a fine (1.3-μm) W powder, the W grains dissolve more rapidly, in about 1 hour, and only W-Mo grains remain. These observations show that
the morphological evolution of grains during liquid-phase sintering can be strongly influenced by the chemical equilibrium
process.

Effect of size and shape of tungsten particles on dynamic torsional properties in tungsten heavy alloys 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The effect of the size and shape of tungsten particles on dynamic torsional properties in tungsten heavy alloys was investigated.
Dynamic torsional tests were conducted on seven tungsten alloy specimens, four of which were fabricated by repeated sintering,
using a torsional Kolsky bar, and then the test results were compared via microstructure, mechanical properties, adiabatic shear banding, and deformation and fracture mode. The size of tungsten particles
and their hardness were increased as sintering temperature and time were increased, thereby deteriorating fracture toughness.
The dynamic torsional test results indicated that in the specimens whose tungsten particles were coarse and irregularly shaped,
cleavage fracture occurred predominantly with little shear deformation, whereas shear deformation was concentrated into the
center of the gage section in the conventionally fabricated specimens. The deformation and fracture behavior of the specimens
having coarse tungsten particles correlated well with the observation of the in situ fracture test results, i.e., cleavage crack initiation and propagation. These findings suggested that there would be an appropriate tungsten particle
size because the cleavage fracture mode would be beneficial for the “self-sharpening” of the tungsten heavy alloys. 相似文献

Densification via liquid-phase sintering generally requires transport of substantial amounts of dissolved solid through the liquid. However,
in composite systems, such as W-Cu, solid solubility in the liquid is almost negligible, and densification is hindered by
the low amount of total mass transport. In this case, solid-state sintering of the skeletal solid structure in the presence
of the liquid is a significant densification mechanism. In this article, the relative contributions to densification of both
liquid and solid mass transport mechanisms are considered. A computer simulation is constructed to predict the densification
behavior and concurrent microstructural development of liquidphase sintered composites for realistic heating cycles. Governing
differential equations for densification are derived from idealized models of the microstructure, considering grain size,
diffusion distance from vacancy source to sink, pore size, and pore morphology. Temperature-dependent terms, including the
diffusivity, solubility, and surface energy, govern densification and microstructural parameters, such as the grain size,
dihedral angle, and contiguity. Predictions for the sintered density, grain size, and contiguity are compared to experimental
results for the W-Cu and W-Cu-Ni systems with approximately 20 vol pct liquid. For W-Cu, which has almost no intersolubility,
solid-state sintering of W in the presence of liquid Cu is the dominant densification mechanism. Nickel additions increase
solid solubility in the liquid and improve typical liquid-phase sintering contributions to densification. Alternatively, high
sintered densities can be achieved in the absence of solubility with a sufficiently small particle size due to the solid-state
contribution. 相似文献

A mathematical model has been developed to describe the motion of particles in current-carrying liquid metals flowing through
a cylindrical pipe. The fluid velocity field was obtained by solving the Navier-Stokes equations, and the trajectories of
particles were calculated using equations of motion for particles. These incorporate the drag, added mass, history, electromagnetic,
and fluid acceleration forces. The results show that particle trajectories are affected by the magnetic pressure number R
H, the Reynolds number Re, the blockage ratio k, and the particle-fluid density ratio γ according to the relative importance of associated force terms. In the axial direction, the particles follow the fluid velocity
closely and will move further axially before reaching the wall as the fluid velocity (Re) increases. In the radial direction,
the outwardly directed electromagnetic force on the particle increases with radial distance from the axis, with increasing
electric current (R
H), and increasing size (k) of particle. The competition between the electromagnetic force and the radial fluid acceleration force in the entrance region
results in particle movement toward the central axis before moving toward the wall for small electric current (low R
H) and directly toward the wall for large current (high R
H). The low inertia (γ) bubbles move faster toward the wall than heavier particles do. The radial velocity of the particle movement as it approaches
the wall is predicted to decrease due to wall effects. This model has been applied to the movement of inclusions within the
electric sensing zone (ESZ) of the liquid metal cleanliness analyzer (LiMCA) system in molten aluminum, and it was proved
that LiMCA system could be used in aluminum industries. 相似文献

Conclusions In (Ti, W)C-Co alloys with binder contents of 30 and 8% the main carbide particle growth mechanism during liquid-phase sintering withing the limits of applicability of Wagner's theory is apparently recrystallization through the liquid phase. In the later stages of sintering an 8% Co alloy can probably exhibit also coalescence. The controlling stage of the recrystallization is diffusion through the liquid phase. In the range of liquid-phase sintering times investigated (1–10 h) the carbide particles in (Ti, W)C-30% Co and (Ti, W)C-8% Co alloys form well-developed skeletons. Small variations in the structure of these skeletons can be brought about by changes in grain size. Changes in the specific surfaces (contact, phase, and total surfaces) of these alloys are in good agrement with the findings of theoretical investigations into the effect of sintering on interfacial areas.Translated from Poroshkovaya Metallurgiya, No. 11(203), pp. 78–84, November, 1979. 相似文献
