I am working on titanium powder along with some other powders and making various specimen. I want to know the various binders which can be supplied during the P/M process. Please suggest me some research article.
Some articleson binder/lubricants from international PM conferences are the following (however take into mind that they reffer mostly to steels and /or aluminum powder grades) It would be also useful to look into the conferences mentioned below where there is a Biomaterials session and many aspects around Ti processing are discussed:
