Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Aims and scope

Abstract

The joining of two spherical particles of nickel alloy powder under the action of lager irradiation, and the lager sintering of thin layers of poured powder were investigated. It was determined that powder particles experience surface melting under the action of lager heating, and join by a welding mechanism
