Abstract

Materials Science Materials Science, Multidisciplinary Metallurgy & Metallurgical Engineering Science & Technology Technology
The recent Field Activated Sintering Technique (FAST) yields enhanced powder densification due to an external electrical current/field application. FAST has been applied to a wide spectrum of materials, from electrically conductive materials to insulators. The chapter first discusses the fundamentals of electrical phenomena and sintering mechanisms under an external electrical current/field. It then describes the main applications and manufacturing benefits of FAST sintering.
