Abstract

Pellets pressed from sponge palladium powder were sintered both isothermally and with constant heating rates using a precision low force dilatometer. Computer analysis of the data is used to determine shrinkage and shrinkage rate behavior during the sintering operation. The data are used in conjunction with metallographic examination to correlate the shrinkage phenomena to the change in grain size and pore morphology. The results show a characteristic shrinkage rate behavior associated with grain growth during sintering which can effectively halt densification.
