Characterisation of Titanium Foams Sintered at Different Temperatures Prepared by the Slurry Method

The mechanical and physical propertics of titanium foam sintered at different temperatures are reported in this paper. In this work, the slurry method has been used for the production of titanium foams using pure titanium and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). The titanium slurry was first prepared by mixing...

description The mechanical and physical propertics of titanium foam sintered at different temperatures are reported in this paper. In this work, the slurry method has been used for the production of titanium foams using pure titanium and titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V). The titanium slurry was first prepared by mixing the titanium powder, polyethylene glycol (PEG), methylcellulose and water. Polyurethane (PU) foams, which acted as scaffolds were then impregnated in the slurry, followed by drying at room temperature. These were later sintered in a high temperature vacuum furnace at 1200oC, 1250oC and 1300°C. The resultant titanium foams were characterised using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and the compressive strength test.
