| Project B3: Ti powder processing | ||||
| Project Leader: Professor Graham Schaffer - University of Queensland | Staff/students |
|||
| The aim of this project is to develop new titanium alloys and processing strategies for the net shape processing of components using the blended elemental powder metallurgy (PM) and powder forging (PF) approaches. The project contains three vertically integrated streams: | Schaffer, Graham Berquist, Cheryl Robertson, Ian Low, Ray Guo, Gregory Chan, Sammy Bian, Singhai Xia, Kenong Wu, Xiaolin Bettles, Colleen Lapovok, Rimma |
|||
| 1. | The analysis of titanium powder surface chemistry. | |||
| 2. | The understanding and enhancement of the sintering of titanium. | |||
| 3. | The development of forging strategies to produce fully dense components from sintered pre-forms. | |||
