Extract

In this study electrolytic copper powder and atomised high purity iron powders of various size, fractions were consolidated to comparable densities by two very different processes (quasistatic pressing and dynamic, or shook wave, compaction). The resulting pairs of compacts had densities of approximately 0.96 of the theoretical density. These specimens were analysed by X-ray diffraction in order to determine the effect of particle size on the response to compaction.
