Injection moulding temperature and powder loading influence to the metal injection moulding (MIM) green compact

The influence of temperature and powder loading on the Metal Injection Moulding (MIM) green compact is presented. The feedstock used is a mixture of stainless steel (SS316L) powder and a composite binder system consisting of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). The bimodal p...
