Fatigue life is often better than achieved by any other processing method. HIPping can also be used to consolidate unusual powder combinations such as superconductors, ferrite’s, nuclear wastes, etc. It also is used to diffusion bond same and dissimilar materials that cannot be bonded otherwise. Many applications such as transparent ceramics cannot be manufactured any other way than HIPping.



a firend was using HIP to make 'functionally gradient materials" going from stainless steel to .. i think hydroxyapatite (bone like material) using HIP... interesting stuff.

HIP's usually used when forming items from powder.. ie "powder metallurgy" and is like sintering of ceramics, but under pressure. but can be used for casting consolidation.

the new BOSS 290 ford rods are sintered....

the pistons are definitely not HIP'd, as you would not see flow lines of any sort in the metal, as in the image above.

well Squeeze casting and semi-solid forming are not exactly common processes. i think you need to have excellent temperature control (within a few degrees) to keep the metal between the 'liquidus' and 'solidus', ie, it is a mush like half frozen cordial? the mush is then forced into a mold... under how much pressure depends on much much is solid and how much is liquid...

could result in flow lines, but the microstructure should still have casting artefacts, like dendritic structures (or remnants of these after heat treatment)

it is not an old techanology, but i'm finding out as much as i can... for a head start, there are some papers in one of the mid 90's "materials forum" conference publications...

in a weeks time Wink
