Microwave processing of materials has emerged as a new method for processing of a
variety of materials in the recent years. Microwaves have been used effectively with …

Tungsten heavy alloys are two-phase metal matrix composites that include W–Ni–Fe and W–
Ni–Cu. The significant feature of these alloys is their ability to acquire both strength and …

The densification kinetics and grain growth behavior of an undoped tungsten powder during
spark plasma sintering (SPS) were investigated under the pressure of 40 MPa and constant …

Highlights The dihedral angle and liquid content of WHA alloy greatly influence the alloy's
density. High densification and deformation were observed in the sample with high liquid …

Processing of metallic materials using microwave energy has been a challenge. However,
exploiting the size factor of particles in these candidate materials opened up further …

Tungsten is a refractory metal possessing good mechanical properties of high strength, high
yield point, and high resistance to creep. Therefore, tungsten and its alloys are used in many …

This study focuses on effects of the reinforced particles on the physical properties of W
alloys. Different strengthening processes for W-based materials, including the manufacturing …

The preparation of metal particle reinforced aluminum matrix composites by powder
metallurgy has been widely studied in recent years. In this work, the effect of microwave …

Tungsten heavy alloy composite was developed by using novel CoCrFeMnNi high-entropy
alloy as the binder/reinforcement phase. Elemental tungsten (W) powder and mechanically …

A novel method of microwave pressureless sintering to fabricate FeCuCo based diamond
alloy tool bits was proposed. The characteristic of densification, mechanical properties and …
