Modeling the Densification of FeSi Sintered Magnetic Alloys

Article Preview

Abstract:

An important process parameter in FeSi sintered alloys is the sintering temperature. If the sintering temperature can be reduced, the sintering process could be performed in less expensive furnaces. A densification model is here applied to experimental data. The model considers both grain size and density. After the model is applied to experimental data, the acquired model parameters allow the simulation of densification for other situations of temperature and heating rates. The model can be helpful to find suitable sintering temperatures in these alloys.
