Composite specimens of amorphous metal flakes have been made using several different binders and several different compaction parameters. The binders have included epoxies, anaerobic adhesives, polyimides, polyamideimides, polyeherimides, and polyesterimides. Compaction variables included the time, temperature and pressure of compaction; flake size, and flake alignment. The best results were achieved using a polyetherimide and aligned flake. Packing factors of 87% were achieved in specimens which also exhibited high mechanical integrity and the ability to withstand a high temperature anneal.
