A laboratory scale co-rotating twin-screw extruder (D24 mm, L/D=14) was used for the extrusion of rice, which could be used for a puffed rice snack. As screw speed of the extrusion cooker was increased from 200 to 360 rpm, air cells structure of the extrudate from glutinous rice powder was improved to small and uniform air cells, and the moisture conetent of rice powder should be maintained to 15-17.5% for better texture of the extrudate. Objective and sensory texture of the extrudate from powder was better than those from grits, and there was no significant difference in textural properties between extrusion made with rice and glutinous rice.

This study was designed to fabricate the micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) parts such as micro spur gears using hot extrusion of gas atomized Al-78Zn powders. For this purpose, it is important to develop new methods to fabricate micro-dies and choose suitable extrusion conditions for a micro-forming. Micro-dies with Ni were fabricated by LIGA technology. LIGA technology was capable to produce micro-extrusion dies with close tolerances, thick bearing length and adequate surface quality. Superplastic Al-78Zn powders have the great advantage in achieving deformation under low stresses and exhibiting good micro formability with average strain rates ranging from $10^{-3}$ to $10^{-2}\;s^{-1}$ and constant temperatures ranging from 503 to 563K. Al-78Zn powders were compacted into a cylindrical shape (${\Phi}3{\times}h10$) under compressive force of 10kN and, subsequently, the compacted powders were extruded at 563k in a hot furnace. Micro-extrusion has succeeded in forming micro-gear shafts.

Chemically pure, hydride/dehydride titanium powders were cold pre-compacted then extruded at $850^{\circ}C$ and $\sim450MPa$ under argon. The extrusions were 100% dense with a narrow band of surface porosity and equiaxed microstructure of similar magnitude to the starting material. The tensile properties of the bars were better than conventionally extruded CP titanium bar product. Outcomes from this study have assisted in the identification of a number of key characteristics important to the extrusion of titanium from pre-compacted CP titanium powders, allowing the elimination of canning and hot isostatic pressing (HIPping) of billets prior to extrusion as per conventional PM processes.

This work is to report not only the effect of rapid solidification of $MgZn_{4.3}Y_{0.7}$ alloys on the micro-structure, but also the extrusion behavior on the materials properties. The average grain size of the atomized powders was about $3-4{\mu}m$. The alloy powders of $Mg_{97}Zn_{4.3}Y_{0.7}$, consisted of I-Phase (Icosahedral, $Mg_{3}Zn_{6}Y_{1}$) as well as Cubic structured W-Phase ($Mg_{3}Zn_{3}Y_{2}$), which was finely distributed within ${\alpha}-Mg$ matrix. The oxide layer formed along the Mg surface was about 48 nm in thickness. In order to study the consolidation behavior of Mg alloy powders, extrusion was carried out with the area reduction ratio of 10:1 to 20:1. As the ratio increased, fully deformed and homogeneous microstructure could be obtained, and the mechanical properties such as tensile strength and elongation were simultaneously increased.

An Eulerian finite element method for the analysis of steady state rolling/extrusion of sintered powder metals is presented. Initial guess of the porosity distribution in an Eulerian mesh is obtained from the velocity and scaled pressure field computed by the Consistent Penalty finite element formulations-the standard one and the consistent penalty type one-are invoked for the analysis of strain hardening, dilatant viscoplastic deformation of porous metals. Comparisons of the predicted distributions of porosity to those by a Lagrangian finite element method and by experiments reported in the articles prove the effectiveness and validity of the proposed method.

To overcome the problem of ginseng's earthy smell in the manufacture of ginseng wine, we used dried ginseng powder that was extrusion-cooked at $125-168^{\circ}C$ in the wine making process. By using a ginseng powder that was extrusion-cooked at higher temperatures, fermentation by Maillard reaction products (MRPs) was delayed, and the acidic pH that results from extrusion cooking was improved. At $15^{\circ}C$ with glucose instead of sucrose, an addition of 0.5%(w/v) diammonium phosphate (DAP) to the $125^{\circ}C$ extrusion-cooked ginseng powder reduced the primary fermentation time to 11 days versus 33 days without DAP. In the absence of DAP, by increasing the fermentation temperature from 15 to $30^{\circ}C$, increasing the starter yeast inoculate from 0.02 to 1 %, and by increasing the amount of ginseng extrudate from 1 to 2%, fermentation time was effectively reduced more than 10-fold. The results of this study may provide information for the alcohol fermentation of materials containing MRPs as well as for poor nitrogen sources.

The thermoelectric effect, which converts waste heat into electricity, holds promise as a renewable energy technology. Recently, bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3)-based alloys are being recognized as important materials for practical applications in the temperature range from room temperature to 500 K. However, conventional sintering processes impose limitations on shape-changeable and tailorable Bi₂Te₃ materials. To overcome these issues, three-dimensional (3D) printing (additive manufacturing) is being adopted. Although some research results have been reported, relatively few studies on 3D printed thermoelectric materials are being carried out. In this study, we utilize extrusion 3D printing to manufacture n-type Bi_1.7Sb_0.3Te₃ (N-BST). The ink is produced without using organic binders, which could negatively influence its thermoelectric properties. Furthermore, we introduce graphene oxide (GO) at the crystal interface to enhance the electrical properties. The formed N-BST composites exhibit significantly improved electrical conductivity and a higher Seebeck coefficient as the GO content increases. Therefore, we propose that the combination of the extrusion 3D printing process (Direct Ink Writing, DIW) and the incorporation of GO into N-BST offers a convenient and effective approach for achieving higher thermoelectric efficiency.

Al-8Fe-2Mo-2V-1Zr alloys were prepared by the gas atomization/hot extrusion and the melt spinning/hot extrusion. For the gas atomized and extruded alloy, equiaxed grains with the average size of 400 nm and finely distributed dispersoids with their particle sizes ranging from 50nm to 200nm were observed. For the melt spun and hot extrusion processed alloy, refined microstructural feature consisting of equiaxed grains with the average size of 200nm and fine dispersoids with their particle sizes under 50nm appeared to exhibit a difference in microstructure. Strength of the latter alloy was higher than that for the former alloy up to elevated temperatures.
