Hot isostatic pressing can be defined as sintering under hydrostatic pressure.
Alliant Techsystems engineers decided on a relatively old technology,
hot isostatic pressing (HIP), using metal powder to create a warhead that would be light enough, yet lethal enough to meet Army requirements.
The use of cold and
hot isostatic pressing (CIP and HIP) and metal injection molding are not as widely applied.
Nearly fully dense polycrystalline [TiB.sub.2] can be produced by a variety of processing methods, including sintering [9-13], hot pressing [14],
hot isostatic pressing [10,11,15,16], microwave sintering [17], and dynamic compaction [18].
Nonferrous powder metallurgy (P/M) technology encompasses a variety of powder consolidation methods, including conventional press and sinter and
hot isostatic pressing that form the technological backbone of the industry.
The zeolite A was then bonded with glass by
hot isostatic pressing to form glass-bonded zeolite samples.
Lightweight, high-performance metals leader Alcoa (NYSE: AA) said it is investing USD22 million in
Hot Isostatic Pressing (HIP) technology at its facility in Whitehall, Michigan.
Hot isostatic pressing higher percent SiCp MMCs sometimes is necessary to eliminate subsurface gas voids.
The topics include powder compaction by dry pressing,
hot isostatic pressing and gas-pressure sintering, vapor-phase deposition of oxides, thermoplastics and monomers as non-conventional polymers in ceramic processing, and high-pressure routes to ceramics.
