Dynamic compaction has been used successfully to compact aluminum and titanium powder. A light gas (helium) gun was used for these studies. Fine oxide powders were added to the metal powders to identify the interparticle boundaries in the compacted material. The as-compacted and heat treated microstructures, particularly the interparticle boundary region, were examined by TEM and optical microscopy. These results and preliminary mechanical test results are presented.
