GOST 25280–90 (CMEA 6741–89, ISO 3927–77) “Metal powders. Method for Determination of Compressibility” is considered. Given the deficiencies revealed, an alternative method for determining the compressibility allowing for the maximum pressure during ejecting of briquettes from cylindrical dies is proposed. The updated comparative method for determining the density includes several stages: (i) compacting lubricant-containing mixtures in lubricated and unlubricated dies and (ii) recompacting lubricated briquettes in a die with bigger diameter. The proposed method can be used for commercial compacting of powders.
