Conclusions
-
1.
Aluminum and tin cause growth of titanium compacts, the extent of which increases with decreasing compact porosity, the maximum attainable increase in height being 4%.
-
2.
After the initial growth aluminum intensifies shrinkage, which in the case of TiA16 compacts counterbalances the growth and exceeds it by 2–3%. Tin at a sintering temperature of 1100°C inhibits and stabilizes shrinkage, as a result of which the linear shrinkage of specimens does not exceed 2%.
