| Abstract | Rapid solidification process was employed to make 6061 Al alloy powder. Powder size distribution was analyzed with SEM. Powder densities, i.e. apparent density and tap density, were measured. Thermal properties were measured via DSC. Surface condition and microstructures and their chemical compositions were characterized with XRD, OM, SEM/EDX. Nanoindentation was employed to obtain the hardness and Young’s modulus of the powders. The relationships among the atomization parameters, powder shapes and sizes, powder densities, thermal properties, microstructures and the mechanical properties were analyzed and rationalized. |
