Summary
-
1.
It is shown that parts can be produced from finely divided molybdenum powders.
-
2.
Of the two peptizers, HCl and NaOH, added to molybdenum slurries, the latter proved to be the more effective (at pH values of 4–5).
-
3.
The highest density (5.72 g/cm3) was attained when casting blanks from a slurry with a solid/ liquid phase ratio of 88∶12 at pH of 4–5.
-
4.
Green molybdenum castings produced from aqueous slurries exhibited high strength.
-
5.
The density of the slip castings attained the same limiting values which are secured by the method of compacting in steel dies.
-
6.
By using molybdenum powder of high specific surface, it was possible to produce parts of high density (∼0.1% porosity) as a result of sintering for 1 h at a temperature of 1700°C, without resorting to activating additions.
