Summary
The influence of chlorides on porosity variation during the sintering of chromium carbide specimens was examined. Chromium chloride must be regarded as the most effective pore-generating addition, the optimum quantities of the additions investigated being 2–4% CrCl3 · 10H2O, 6–8% CoCl2 · 6H2O, and 1–2% NiC12 · 6H2O.
Because of the activating effect of the chlorides, to obtain chromium carbide specimens of equal or even higher strength it is possible to lower their sintering temperature by 200–300°C compared with that required for similar specimens containing no additions. The maximum residual porosity attained is 50–52%.
