Author:Seerane, MN; Chikwanda, HK; Focke, W; Machaka, RonaldDate:Oct 2013Powder loading is one of the most critical factors in metal injection moulding (MIM) technology. It largely determines the success or failure of the subsequent MIM processes. A gas-atomized Ti6Al4V powder was investigated to determine an ...Read more
Author:Seerane, M; Chikwanda, H; Focke, W; Machaka, RonaldDate:Oct 2014Debinding is one of the most critical and time consuming stage in metal injection moulding (MIM). German and Bose (1997) reported that early debinding practice relied on thermal binder degradation, requiring up to 300 hours for complete binder ...Read more
Author:Vuorinen, E; Focke, W; Rigo, TDate:Feb 2006A vapour-phase corrosion inhibitor (VCI) needs to be a volatile compound or a mixture of compounds. It reaches the surfaces that need to be protected from corrosion via the vapour phase and forms a relatively stable bond at the interface of ...Read more
