This paper presents an alternative approach in powder injection moulding (PIM) process by highlighting the advantages of using irregular-shaped and bimodal size Ti6Al4V-HA composite. An investigation on rheological behaviour feedstock at a ratio 90:10 weight percent was done spherical irregular shapes Ti6Al4V particle, together with palm stearin polyethylene acts as binder system. Subsequent to results, critical volume percentage (CPVP) value improved 5–8 vol. %. Furthermore, shows...
The combination of metallic bio-inert material, stainless-steel 316L (SS316L) and a bio-active hydroxyapatite (HA) can produce composite which has superior properties for orthopaedic applications. main objective this study is to investigate the effects sintering temperature holding time on physical mechanical sintered part. 50wt.% SS316L HA were mixed with binder system palm stearin (PS) polyethylene (PE) at 61 vol.% powder loading. Rheological show pseudo-plastic behaviour feedstock, where...
The development of porous metal structures, especially for the use titanium alloys in bone implant applications, has attracted attention researchers. However, forming structures composites via powder injection molding (PIM) remains early stages analysis, allowing determination processing parameters to be studied greater detail. In this study, critical PIM alloy titanium–hydroxyapatite were identified space holder method. Titanium (Ti6Al4V) was mixed with hydroxyapatite (HA) at a weight...
Shape memory alloys (SMAs) are a class of smart materials that have the unusual feature remembering initial shape after plastic deformation. SMAs differ from traditional elastic/plastic in because reversible hysteretic thermos mechanical behavior. Copper (Cu) based most promising terms practical application due to their inexpensive cost and high recovery force. Powder injection molding (PIM) is well known for creation complex components (micro parts) Aluminium Manganese (CuAlMn) studied...
