Reacting sintering

The kinetic description just formulated is acceptable as long as particles accumulated at the primary minimum do not react (sinter) with the collector. If sintering occurs, then Eq. [17] has to be replaced by... 

Controlled Atmosphere Furnaces Hydrogen or cracked ammonia atmospheres, with dew point and temperature controls, are typicaUy used to react sintered-powder metallized coatings with ceramic. These furnaces operate at 1300-1700°C. 

Place 125 ml. of glacial acetic acid, 7 -5 g. of purifled red phosphorus (Section II,50,d) and 2 5 g. of iodine in a 500 ml, round-bottomed flask fitted with a reflux condenser. Allow the mixture to stand for 15-20 minutes with occasional shaking until aU the iodine has reacted, then add 2 5 ml. of water and 50 g, of benzilic acid (Section IV,127). Boil the mixture under reflux for 3 hours, and filter the hot mixture at the pump through a sintered glass funnel to remove the excess of red phosphorus. Pour the hot filtrate into a cold, weU-stirred solution of 12 g. of sodium bisulphite in 500 ml, of water the latter should be acid to litmus, pro duced, if necessary, by passing sulphur dioxide through the solution. This procedure removes the excess of iodine and precipitates the diphenyl-acetic acid as a fine white or pale yellow powder. Filter the solid with suction and dry in the air upon filter paper. The yield is 45 g., m.p. 

MCVD process (Fig. 7) the reactants enter the tube, are reacted in the hot 2one of the torch, deposit therm oph oretically downstream of the torch, and are subsequendy sintered to a clear glass as the torch passes over the deposited particulate layer. Once the desired stmcture has been deposited, the direction of the torch is reversed and the tube is collapsed to form a soHd preform. 

Other Reactions. Dry hydrated lime adsorbs halogen gases, eg, CI2 and F2, to form hypochlorites and fluorides. It reacts with hydrogen peroxide to form calcium peroxide, a rather unstable compound. At sintering temperatures, quicklime combines with iron to form dicalcium ferrite. 

In pack cementation, the part to be coated is placed in a retort and surrounded with a powdered pack consisting of the coating component and an activator the latter reacts with the coating component to form the carrier vapor, usually a haHde or an inert diluent, to prevent the pack from sintering together and to permit vapor transport of the alloying component through the pack. 

Bina Selenides. Most biaary selenides are formed by beating selenium ia the presence of the element, reduction of selenites or selenates with carbon or hydrogen, and double decomposition of heavy-metal salts ia aqueous solution or suspension with a soluble selenide salt, eg, Na2Se or (NH 2S [66455-76-3]. Atmospheric oxygen oxidizes the selenides more rapidly than the corresponding sulfides and more slowly than the teUurides. Selenides of the alkah, alkaline-earth metals, and lanthanum elements are water soluble and readily hydrolyzed. Heavy-metal selenides are iasoluble ia water. Polyselenides form when selenium reacts with alkah metals dissolved ia hquid ammonia. Metal (M) hydrogen selenides of the M HSe type are known. Some heavy-metal selenides show important and useful electric, photoelectric, photo-optical, and semiconductor properties. Ferroselenium and nickel selenide are made by sintering a mixture of selenium and metal powder. 

Barium carbonate of finely controlled particle size reacts in the soHd state when heated with iron oxide to form barium ferrites. Magnetically aligned barium ferrite [11138-11-7] powder can be pressed and sintered into a hard-core permanent magnet which is used in many types of small motors. Alternatively, ground up magnetic powder can be compounded into plastic strips which are used in a variety of appHances as part of the closure mechanism. 

Barium carbonate also reacts with titania to form barium titanate [12047-27-7] BaTiO, a ferroelectric material with a very high dielectric constant (see Ferroelectrics). Barium titanate is best manufactured as a single-phase composition by a soHd-state sintering technique. The asymmetrical perovskite stmcture of the titanate develops a potential difference when compressed in specific crystallographic directions, and vice versa. This material is most widely used for its strong piezoelectric characteristics in transducers for ultrasonic technical appHcations such as the emulsification of Hquids, mixing of powders and paints, and homogenization of milk, or in sonar devices (see Piezoelectrics Ultrasonics). 

Iron carbide (3 1), Fe C mol wt 179.56 carbon 6.69 wt % density 7.64 g/cm mp 1650°C is obtained from high carbon iron melts as a dark gray air-sensitive powder by anodic isolation with hydrochloric acid. In the microstmcture of steels, cementite appears in the form of etch-resistant grain borders, needles, or lamellae. Fe C powder cannot be sintered with binder metals to produce cemented carbides because Fe C reacts with the binder phase. The hard components in alloy steels, such as chromium steels, are double carbides of the formulas (Cr,Fe)23Cg, (Fe,Cr)2C3, or (Fe,Cr)3C2, that derive from the binary chromium carbides, and can also contain tungsten or molybdenum. These double carbides are related to Tj-carbides, ternary compounds of the general formula M M C where M = iron metal M = refractory transition metal. 

After having been washed with 50 cc of water the benzene layer is dried over potassium carbonate, filtered, allowed to stand over 10 g of alumina for about VA hours for partial decolorization, filtered again and concentrated under reduced pressure. The oily base which remains as a residue is directly converted into the tartrate. A solution cooled to 0°C, of 6.50 g of the free base in 100 cc of acetic acid ethyl ester is thoroughly shaken and poured into an ice cold solution of 2.66 g of tartaric acid in 410 cc of acetic acid ethyl ester. The precipitated, analytically pure, tartrate of 3-methylsulfinyl-10-[2 -N-methyl-piperidyl-2")-ethyl-1 ]-phenothiazine melts at 115° to 120°C (foam formation) and sinters above B0°C. The base Is reacted with benzene sulfonic acid in a suitable solvent to give the besylate. 

Steam forms a protective white film at temperatures up to about 250°C, but above this temperature steam can, under some conditions, react with aluminium progressively to form aluminium oxide and hydrogen. Sintered aluminium powder (S. A.P.) has relatively good resistance to steam at 500°C, but at about 300°C an addition of 1% nickel to the S.A.P. is needed to prevent rapid disintegration. 

The most delicate part of this system is obviously the die, whose material must resist the simultaneous action of heat and pressure (adequate strength and creep resistance) must not react chemically with the material being hot pressed and with the environment must have a low thermal expansion coefficient, i.e. lower than the material being sintered (otherwise hot ejection is necessary to avoid the sample cracking or the die splitting) and must have good thermal-shock resistance.
