An Overview of Master Sintering Curve

Abstract:

The search for a simple, accurate model to predict the sintering behavior is still a valid challenge facing the particulate materials industry. In spite of the sophistication of the before proposed methods, most models have not yet attained a desirable level of applicability. All just describe the micro sintering process but fail in controlling the densification behavior. The master sintering curve (MSC) is a model in densification which can adequately predict sintering results and is independent of heating history. The MSC can give better understanding of arbitrary sintering process and be introduced into industry production successfully. This paper provides a detailed overview of the MSC, including the construction, application, complications and some improvements of the concept.
