A new powder encapsulation method and its implications on densification by hot isostatic pressing [PDF]
Hot isostatic pressing is now an accepted material processing technique for the consolidation of metal powders to near-net-shape components. This thesis examines the use of coatings as in-situ envelopes to overcome the problems associated with ...

Sintering of nanocrystalline materials: Sintering parameters
Nanostructured materials (NsM) are typical materials with structural length scales of one, two, or three dimensions in the range of 1-100 nm. In the development of NsM, the microstructure of a material, which is an integral factor in determining the intrinsic performance of a material, is susceptible to changes that may hinder the desired nano-state ...

Application of machine learning algorithms for prediction of sinter machine productivity
Sinter machine productivity is key techno-economic parameter of an integrated steel plant. It depends upon the composition of different constituents like iron ore fines, flux and coke breeze which are agglomerated to produce sinter for blast furnaces. It

Silica Sinter and the Evolution of Hot Springs in the Alvord/Pueblo Valleys, Southeast Oregon, USA
Hot springs in the Alvord/Pueblo valleys in southeastern Oregon are analogous to Basin-and-Range hydrothermal systems where heat source and permeable pathways are met through crustal thinning.

Occurrence Form of Potassium Vapor in Sinter and Its Effect on Reduction Degradation Indexes
In this study, potassium vapor was prepared by using potassium carbonate (K2CO3) and activated carbon (C) reagents to simulate the actual situation of adsorbing potassium vapor from the sinter in the blast furnace.

A Study of the Structure and Physicochemical Properties of the Mixed Basicity Iron Ore Sinter
To study the influence of sinter basicity on the microstructure, phase composition, and physicochemical and metallurgical properties, samples of agglomerates with different basicities were sintered and investigated. A comprehensive study of the structure,

Modified coke breeze distribution in iron ore sintering - a novel technique of reducing energy consumption and improving quality [PDF]
In normal sintering of iron ore, there is a wide difference in temperature of the sinter bed between top and bottom; i.e. the flame front temperature of the sinter bed gradually increases towards the bottom because the lower part gets longer time for ...
