Abstract
Kuczynski’s formula has been derived for the case of nonspherical particles. Two formulae of Kuczynski’s type have been derived, one describing the increase in tensile strength, the other describing the progress of shrinkage of a powder compact. It has been shown that the exponents of all three formulae each contain two magnitudes of different physical characters, viz, the geometrical factor α and the kinetic factor β. The interrelationships between the three exponents are stated.
