| Abstract |
The hypereutectic prealloyed Al-Si powders were prepared by gas atomization process.
The microstructure and compacting ability of the atomized Al-Si powders were investigated. With
increasing the gas pressure of the atomization, the average powder size and oxygen content were
decreased. The size of primary eutectic Si particles in the as-atomized powders was about 8~10.
As-atomized powders were hot-pressed into a cylindrical shape. Relative density of the hot-pressed
samples was achieved about 96~99 % of theoretical density. Some properties of the samples were
evaluated in this paper. |
