Carbon contamination from the binder resin is an inherent problem with the metal powder injection molding process. Residual carbon in the W-Cu compacts has a strong impact on the thermal and electric properties. In this study, uncertainty was quantified to evaluate determination of carbon in a W-15%Cu MIM body by the combustition method. For a valid generalization about this evaluation, uncertainty scheme applied even to the repeatability as well as the uncertainty sources of each analyse step and quality appraisal sources. As a result, the concentration of carbon in the W-Cu part were measured as 0.062% with expanded uncertainty of 0.003% at 95% level. This evaluation example may be useful to uncertainty evaluation for other MIM products.

Ti-6Al-4V has low specific gravity, high corrosion resistance and superior mechanical properties but it is very difficult to control oxygen content in MIM process. It is necessary to use powders with coarse particle size to decrease oxygen content of powders, so feedstocks with poor fluidity and sintered bodies with lower density are obtained in such cases. Fine titanium hydride-dehydride powders were blended with atomized powders to accomplish higher fluidity and sintered density. Sintered bodies had higher sintered density and mechanical properties equivalent to those of wrought materials by controlling oxygen content less than 0.35mass%.

A new PIM in-process joining technique has been developed for more complicated and functional PIM components by application of the exuded wax from the green compacts during solvent debinding step. At first, various stainless steels and iron compacts with rectangular shape were combined, and the joining behaviors and properties were investigated by shear and tensile test, and microscopic observation. Subsequently, perfect joined three pieces of thin and hollow compacts were obtained for the combination of same and different stainless steels, and it was difficult to join the iron and stainless steel compacts in hydrogen atmosphere because of the different starting temperature of shrinkage. However, pretty good joined iron and stainless steel compacts were obtained by consideration of particle size and vacuum atmosphere. Finally, for the combination of ferro-silicon and austenitic stainless steel compacts, high functionality (magnetic (1.60Tes1a) & non-magnetic) and perfect joint were obtained.

Processing and properties of high power piezoelectric transformer (PT) fabricated by PIM with nano-sized piezoelectric powders are demonstrated. The high power characteristics of a PMed dome-shaped PT were examined by the lighting test for a 55watt PL lamp. The 55watt PL lamp was successfully driven by the PIMed PT with sustaining efficiency higher than 98%. The transformer with ring/dot area ratio of 2.1 exhibited the maximum properties in terms of output power, efficiency and temperature stability.

Injection molding is one of the methods to prepare dielectromagnets-permanent magnets made from hard magnetic powder (or from mixture of powders) bonded by dielectric materials. Magnetic properties of dielectromagnets are worse than those of sintered magnets made from the same hard magnetic powders, but this type of the permanent magnet has many advantages. One of them is simpler technology-easier in comparison to the technology of sintered magnets. The injection molded dielectromagnets do not need any final treatment. This technology permits to control magnetic, thermal and mechanical properties of dielectromagnets. The main chracteristics of dielectormagnets are magnetic properties, however mechanical properties have serious influence onto a range of their applications. The main factors shaping mechanical properties have serious influence onto a range of their applications. The main factors shaping mechanical properties of dielectromagnets are the kind and quantity of resin and the technology. The purpose of this investigateion was to find the correlation between infection conditions and the mechanical properties of dielectromagnets. Influence of two parameters of injection, temperature and pressure on mechanical and magnetic properties of dielectromagnets were not significantly changed. Increasing of pressure of injection also does not influence on mechanical properties of analysed samples, however increasing of temperature of injection significantly improved both compression and bending strength.

플라스틱 이방성 페라이트 자석에서 페라이트 분말함량 변화에 레올로지와 자기특성의 변화를 조사하였다. 분말함량 변화에 따른 상대점도의 측정값과 이론식을 비교하였다. 분말함량 증가에 따른 혼합물의 상대점도 증가경향과 플라스틱자석의 분말배향도의 감소경향은 정확히 일치하였다. 일정한 자장하에서 사출성형된 플라스틱 이방성 페라이트 자석에서 잔류자속밀도와 최대자기에너지적은 분말함량 증가에 따라 적선적으로 증가하다가 다시 감소하여 극대값을 나타냈으며, 극대값 이후의 자기특성 가소는 분말배향도의 급격한 감소에 기안하였다. 자기특성 극대값을 나타내는 분말한량은 사출형성시 자장의 세기와 결합체의 용융점도에 의존하며, 높은 자기특성을 위해서는 낮은 용융점도의 결합제 사용이 필요하다.

An investigation was performed to apply the M3/2 grade high speed steel for metal injection molding using both prealloyed and elementally blended powders. The injected samples were subjected to a debinding step in $H_2/N_2$ gas atmosphere at a ratio that affected the carbon content of the material. The carbon content ranged from 1.4wt.% to 1.43wt%. with increasing $H_2$ content up to 80% $H_2$ in $H_2/N_2$ atmosphere for the prealloyed powders. The carbon contents of the elementally blended powders exhibited 1.44wt.% and 1.62wt.% at 10% $H_2/N_2$ and 20% $H_2/N_2$ gas, respectively. This level decreased to 0.17wt.% upon increasing the $H_2$ content. The sintered density of both powders increased rapidly as the temperature reached the liquid phase forming temperature. After forming the liquid phase, the density rapidly increased to the optimum sintering temperature for the prealloyed powders, whereas the density of mixed elemental powders goes up slowly to the optimum sintering temperature. The optimum sintering temperature and density are 126$0^{\circ}C$ and 97.3% for the prealloyed powders and 128$0^{\circ}C$ and 96.9% for the elementally blended powders, respectively. The microstructure of the specimen at the optimum sintering temperature consisted of fine grains with primary carbides of MC and $M_6C$ type for the prealloyed powders. The elementally blended powders exhibited coarse grains with eutectic carbides of MC, $M_2C$ and $M_6C$ type.

에탄올에 의한 폴리에틸렌글리콜(PEG)위 용매추출법이 Sr-페라이트/PEG/carnaubawax/HDPE로 구성된 분말사출성형체에서 연구되었다. 에탄올에 의한 PEG의 추출율은 용매의 온도에 민감하게 비례하나, PEG의 첨가량, PEG의 분자량, 그리고 시편의 두께에는 반비례한다. 에탄올에 의한 PEG의 효과적인 용매추출은 7$0^{\circ}C$의 용매온도, 30%의 PEG 첨가량, 400g/mo1의 PEG 분자량에서 가능하였다. 용매추출의 초기단계에서 에탄올에 의한 PEG의 추출율은 추출시간의 제곱근과 정비례관계를 갖지 않으므로 Fickian 거동을 나타내지 않는다. 그러나 180분 이상의 용매추출시간에서 PEG의 추출율은 Fickian 거동을 따른다. 에탄올에 의한 PEG의 추출속도는 상용화가 가능한 수준인 약 $1.0{ imes}10^{-6}g/cm^2sec$를 나타낸다.

The present investigation has been performed on the mixing behavior and microstructural development during fabrication of Fe micro-nano powder feedstock for a micro-powder injection molding process. The mixing experiment using a screw type blender system was conducted to measure the variations of torque and temperature during mixing of Fe powder-binder feedstock with progressive powder loading for various nano-powder compositions up to 25%. It was found that the torque and the temperature required in the mixing of feedstock increased proportionally with increasing cumulative powder loading. Such an increment was larger in the feedstock containing higher content of nano-powder at the same powder loading condition. However, the maximum value was obtained at the nano-powder composition of not 25% but 10%. It was owing to the 'roller bearing effect' of agglomerate type nano-powder acting as lubricant during mixing, consequently leading to the rearrangement of micro-nano powder in the feedstock. It is concluded that the improvement of packing density by rearrangement of nano-powders into interstices of micro-powders is responsible for the maximum powder loading of about 71 vol.% in the nano-powder composition of 25%.
