Conclusions
-
1.
The extent to which re-pressing affects the total electrical resistance of a porous sintered material depends on the quality of the starting interparticle contacts. With perfect starting contacts, re-pressing has virtually no effect upon the resistance of a specimen; with partly imperfect starting contacts (higher porosity, lower sintering temperature), the resistance falls after re-pressing as a result of a decrease in screen resistance; with poor starting contacts, the resistance may grow as a result of their partial destruction (structural deformation).
-
2.
It is suggested that the electrical-resistance method can be successfully employed for ascertaining whether the pressing of powders and the re-pressing of sintered compacts is accompanied by structural deformation and for determining the extent of this phenomenon.
-
3.
The contact resistance in pressings and re-pressed compacts sharply falls after annealing at 200–400°C, and after annealing at 600°C interparticle contacts become perfect from an electrical standpoint. The sintering of new contacts formed during re-pressing is identical with the sintering of interparticle contacts established during the pressing of powder.
