Abstract
A study was made of the densification by hot pressing of ultrafine (< 2 μm α-AlB12 and Al3B48C2) powders synthesized from the elements, and of the same powders ground in a planetary mill. The optimum regimes for obtaining almost pore free specimens were determined, as well as the effects of iron and particle size on the kinetics of densification.
