Manufacturing Process and Geometric Model of Porous Metal Fiber Sintered Felts

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using the designed multi-tooth tool, a novel porous metal fiber sintered felt (PMFSF) with three-dimensional reticulated structure has been produced by solid-state sintering of copper fibers. The copper fibers were fabricated using the cutting method. According to the SEM results, it was found that there were two kinds of sintering joints of surface contact and crossing fiber meshing among the fibers in the PMFSF. The coarser sintering joints will help to enhance the mechanical strength of PMFSF. Based on the structure characteristic, a three-dimensional model with the cubic pore cell structure was established to describe the structure of PMFSF. In addition, the effectiveness of geometric model was verified by the test results of specific surface area of PMFSF.
