Novel coalescence-driven grain-growth mechanism during annealing/spark plasma sintering of NiO nanocrystals

Localized pore evolution assisted densification during spark plasma sintering of nanocrystalline W-5wt.%Mo alloy

“…Spark plasma sintering (SPS) has shown a great promise over the last few decades due to several advantages than the conventional sintering processes, such as densifying variety of materials to fully dense structure at a lower temperature in a short duration of time with a possibility of retaining the fine grain structure [1][2][3]. These benefits are primarily attributed to localized heating mechanism [4,5].…”
