Abstract:A new master sintering curve (MSC) is proposed for Al-Mg alloy in order to effectively design the pressure-assisted sintering process. In this work, hot pressing experiments of Al-Mg alloy powders are performed. The changes of relative density during hot pressing are measured for the various heating rates of 5 ∘ C/min, 10 ∘ C/min, and 20 ∘ C/min at the fixed pressure of 50 MPa. A work of sintering, designated as Θ, is introduced and defined as Θ( , ) = ∫ 0 (1/ )exp(− / ) . A work of sintering, Θ, could be inte… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
