Hot isostatic pressing: Theory and applications; Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference, Gaithersburg, MD, June 7-9, 1989

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6230725
The topics covered include the theory and modeling of hot isostatic pressing (HIP), the metals and alloys, advanced composites, composite materials, coatings and superconductors, and HIP technology and instrumentation. Papers are presented on the rapid computerized modeling of the final shape of HIPed axisymmetric containers, a finite-element simulation of HIPing of ceramic powders, densification during HIP, comparative studies on post-HIP and sinter-HIP treatments of transformation toughened ceramics, the effects of oxygen on the HIPing of laser-synthesized Si3N4 powders, and HIPing of SiN4-SiC composite powders prepared by the nitriding combustion reaction. Other papers are on the microstructure, mechanical properties and oxidation behavior of HIPed tantalum nitride, HIP sintering of beta-sialon powder derived from silicon diimide, vacuum sintering and HIPing of a plasma-sprayed WC-Co coating, recent trends in HIP process technology in Japan, and the development and use of a HIP dilatometer.
