Debinding Kinetics of a Water Soluble Binder System for Titanium Alloys Metal Injection Moulding

Article Preview

Abstract:

A water soluble binder system is used to prepare Ti-6Al-4V and NiTi pre-alloyed powder feedstock. The binder dissolution and transport kinetics through the porous powder skeleton are studied for various powder morphologies and powder loadings from 60 to 69.5 vol.%. The binder removal behaviours are evaluated with different debinding time intervals. The focus of this work is to investigate the influences of shaping pressure, specimen thickness and water bath temperature on the binder extraction behaviour.
