Abstract
In this study, compressibility, and conventional and ultra-high frequency induction sintering behaviors of 99.8% purity and 50-70 µm size range aluminum powders were investigated. In the compressibility studies, uniaxial-cold pressing method was used. Green samples were produced in the range of 50-275 MPa using different pressures. By measuring the apparent densities of the produced samples, the optimum compressibility pressure was determined as 200 MPa. Pure aluminum powder metal samples produced with this ideal pressing pressure were sintered in both classical and ultra-high frequency induction methods in the range of 500-600 oC. Sintering was performed as 40 min in the traditional method and 5 min in the ultra-high frequency induction sintering method. As a result of the tests carried out in this study, it was determined that pure aluminum samples were successfully sintered with a high frequency induction system in a shorter time than traditional sintering method.
