Metal Powder Properties: A Case with Low Specific Surface Area

Particle Characterization

Powder metallurgy is the study of transforming metal into powder and the consolidation of powder into the desired final product through methods such as sintering, compaction, blending, injection molding, or extrusion. Powder metallurgy is the essence of 3D additive manufacturing and it covers a broad spectrum of traditional applications including orthopedic implants, dental restorations, or paint pigments. The success of any powder metallurgical process, however, depends heavily on the understanding and control of the metal powder characteristics.

Metal Powder Properties: A Case with Low Specific Surface Area
Determination of specific surface area of metal powders is an important parameter in the field of powder metallurgy. In this note, we demonstrate the use of Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) technique to measure another critical metal powder property: specific surface area (SSA).
