Calculation results using a gas diffusion model suggested that a reduction time of Cr-alloyed steel powder in vacuum annealing was in proportion to the 2nd power of the thickness of the packed powder. However, the reduction time actually required in a vacuum furnace was in proportion to the 1/8 power of the thickness. It was therefore concluded that the reduction time was influenced as well by the heat transfer in the packed powder and the atmospheric pressure in the furnace.

Rapidly solidified Zn-22Al superplastic ribbon was produced by melt spinning process. The ribbon was pulverized and compacted in a closed-die, then subjected to forward extrusion under a condition at temperature of 250C. Tensile test of the extruded compact was carried out at 250C. Characteristics of the ribbon, the pulverized ribbon and the extruded compact were compared to those of rapidly solidified Zn-22Al superplastic powder and the extruded compact made by centrifugal atomization process already investigated.
The ribbon had a fine and homogeneous microstructure similar to that of the powder by the centrifugal atomization. It was estimated that cooling rate of the rapidly solidified ribbon was almost equal to that of the powder, namely, 10
5C/s. Elongation of the extruded compact made by the pulverized ribbon was inferior to that made by the powder because of existence of pores in the compact.

Sinterability of NiAl powder with the composition of Ni-49.4at%Al prepared by a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis(SHS) method were examined in a hot-pressing process. The sintered compacts with density of 97-99% were obtained by a hot-pressing at 1200 to 1400°C for 0.5hr under a pressure of 60MPa in vacuum. The bending strength of sintered NiAl hot-pressed at 1200°C reaches a maximum value of 1080MPa. The room-temperature strength of NiAl is strongly dependent on grain sizes.

The effect of addition of Tic powders on the sintering behavior, microstructure and mechanical properties of atomized low alloy steel powder compacts by liquid phase sintering using Fe-Ni-B master alloy powder has been studied. The rate of grain growth during liquid phase sintering in the specimen with no additive followed a time to the 1/3 power dependence. Small amount of TiC inhibited the grain growth without having been accompanied by a lower densification rate. A good combination of 1000 MPa in strength and 7 % in elongation was obtained in the liquid phase sintered compacts added 1 % TiC with fine upper bainite structure.

Compacts made from a composite-type alloyed steel powder with 2% Ni and 1% Mo attained high endurance limits of rolling bending and contact fatigue strengths of 460MPa and 2560MPa, respectively, after case hardening. These endurance limits were much higher than those of a conventional 4%Ni-0.5%Mo-1.5%Cu alloyed steel powder, which were 410MPa and 2430MPa, respectively. When double pressed, double sintered and bright quenched, compacts made from the 2%Ni-1%Mo alloyed steel powder showed endurance limits of rotating bending strength of 390MPa and contact fatigue strength of 2710MPa, both higher than those of the compacts made from the conventional alloyed steel powder, which were 350MPa and 2330MPa, respectively.
The results of micro-X-ray analysis indicated the decrease in the amount of austenite phase near the fatigue-fractured surface, The improvement of fatigue strength was therefore attributed to the strain-induced martensitic transformation of Ni-rich austenite.

Influence of the addition of boron and the sintering temperature on the mechanical properties, especially ductility and toughness, of P/M Austenite type stainless steels were investigated.
As a result, in order to obtain the high strength value, it was necessary to add 0.57-1.04wt.% boron to P/M steels. The tensile strength values of these specimens were 450MPa over. This reason was precipitation hardening behavior with many and fine borides without melting. In order to obtain the high ductility value, it was necessary to add 0.16-0.23wt.% boron to in P/M steels. The elongation values of these specimens were 30% over. This reason was high sintered density of austenitic matrix by the melting of minor borides. On the other hand, the high toughness value was independent of boron contents. It was necessary to obtain high sintered density of matrix because of the reduction of pore.

The effect of VC on mechanical properties of sintered high speed steel(PX16; equivalent for SKH51) made from water atomized powder has been studied. The mechanical properties such as transverse rupture strength and microvickers hardness have been measured and optical and electron microscopic observation have been carried out. The results obtained were summarized as follow;
1) Microvickers hardness of the composite increases with the increase of the mass fraction of VC.
2) Transverse rupture strength decreases with the increase of the mass fraction of VC.
3) In consequence of added VC, M
6C type carbides were extinguished.
4) Carbide grain size in this alloy is growing with the increase of the mass fraction of VC.

The motion of each milling ball during vibratory ball milling of metal powders was simulated by a computer using one-. two- and three-dimensional models of a vibratory ball mill. In these models, the consumpton of impact energy of the balls by the micro-compaction of metal powder particles during impact was assumed to be equivalent to the energy loss by an imaginary viscosity given to the balls and mill container. As a result of the simulation by using the three models, it was found that the motion of the milling balls is strongly dependent on the ball charge fraction. With an increase in the ball charge, the impact frequency increased, while an average of impact velocity normal to each contact surface decreased.

Mechanical alloying process of Ti-Al powder mixtures during vibratory milling was investigated by optical microscopy, SEM, X-ray diffraction analysis, XMA and micro-hardness measurement.Microstructures and phases of HIPed compacts of the milled powders were also investigated. As a result it was found that the amorphization behavior and morphology of the powder particles during milling were strongly dependent on the milling ball size. The phases and the microstructures of the HIPed compacts were affected by the starting powder composition.

3 particles as the dispersoids were prepared by mechanical alloying of carbonyl nickel powders with Al-, Zr- or Y-alkoxide in the air atmosphere followed by heat-treatment in a hydrogen atmosphere at 600°C. The powders thus obtained were then consolidated by compacting and sintering at temperatures from 600°C to 1200°C in a hydrogen atmosphere. Results obtained were as follows:
1) The microstructure of each powder obtained was very fine, and the crystallite sizes of them were in the range of 35nm to 71nm.
2) Among these powders, only Ni-Al
2O
3 powder showed superior sinterability. The 0.2% -bending strength of the specimen obtained by sintering this powder at 1200°C was 870MPa, which was more than eight times as high as that of the specimen obtained by sintering pure nickel powder.
3) In the case of Ni-Al
2O

Mechanical alloying of Titanium, Molybdenum, Nickel and graphite powders was performed using a vibrational ball-mill. Mechanical alloying process of cermet powder was studied by X-ray diffraction, electron probe micro analysis (EPMA) and scanning electron microscopy.
Results from X-ray diffraction and EPMA suggested the synthesis of TiC was carried out for about 50 hours and the addition of Ni assisted this synthesis. The difference of mechanical alloying atmosphere had an effect on particle size of TiC after sintered. Mechanical alloyed Ti-C-20mass%Ni-10mass%Mo was able to sinter at low temperature and had a minute structure.

The starting powders of Ni
24.3Ti
75.7 composition were amorphized by mechanical alloying(MA). The concentration-concentration correlation function was directly observed by neutron diffraction, because the average coherent scattering length of the alloy powders is adjusted to be zero, i.e., <b>=0.
The negative peak at r=2.54 Å in the reduced radial concentration correlation function G
CC(r) can be taken as evidence for the preferential formation of the Ni-Ti unlike atom pair, the distance of which is smaller than that calculated from the diameters of Ni and Ti atoms. The Warren chemical short range order parameter of the Ni
24.3Ti
75.7 amorphous alloy was evaluated to be a negative value of -0.097. These findings clearly demonstate the preferential existence of Ni-Ti unlike atom pairs at the nearest neighbor coordination in the Ni

Mixture of electrolytic copper and atomized zinc powders was mechanically alloyed for various periods of the milling by using an attritor ball mill. Changes of morphology and microstructure of the processed powder with the processing were studied. Content of zinc in the copper particle increases with the increasing of milling time. The zinc(η) phase disappears after the processing for a short period and ε or γ phases are formed at intermadiate stage of the processing. The Cu-30%Zn powder processed for 10hr reaches an equilibrational microstructure, but the alloying process in the Cu-40%Zn powder is late than that in the Cu-30%Zn powder. The mechanically alloyed powders for 5hr were extruded at various temperatures. Microstructure of the extrusions is constituted of an α phase in the Cu-30%Zn and α and 8 phases in the Cu-40%Zn which have fine grain size of about lμm in both extrusions.

We have recognized that A1-8wt%Fe P/M alloys made by mechanical alloying(MA) for 54ks had tensile Strength of 365MPa at 298K, 258Mpa at 523k. And Main reason is that very small Al-Fe intermetallic compound partickles are dispersed uniformally in the Alminum matrix, Therefore, we tried to clear on the formation process of Al-Fe intermetallic compounds in A1-8wt%Fe P/M alloys made by MA.
According to the XRD patterns of the dispersoids, the specimens of MA and non-annealed powder, MA and 673K annealed powder and MA, 673K annealed and 773K extruded alloy were deeply corroded by phenol at 433K in order to pick out from the aluminum matrix, the MA, non-annealed powder showed only Fe peaks, the MA, annealed powder showed some peaks like Al-Fe intermetallic compounds, and the MA, annealed and extruded alloy showed clearly A13Fe peaks.
On the other hand, according to DTA results of MA and non-annealed powder, two exothermic reactions were obserbed, the one appeared at about 5739, another appeared at about 673K.
From the results of shoves, on the production process of A1-8wt%Fe P/M alloys made by MA, only Fe particles were dispersed in the Aluminum matrix before heating treatments, and the time when the Fe particles began to change Al-Fe intermetallic compounds were in the heating treatment processes.

Phases formed on the ball-milling process has been studied by X-ray diffractometry, 57Fe Mbssbauer spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry.
Results suggest that the partial amorphization of Fe-C system ball-milled for 200 hours has been occurred, while the single amorphous phase has been formed for Fe-C-Si system. The addition of silicon suppresses the formation of iron-carbides to promote the amorphization.
