Coated powder is a composite powder formed by coating a layer of different components on the surface of particles. Combined powder blended powder is a powder composed of different batches of powder with the same nominal composition. Binder binder is added to the powder in order to increase the strength of the green compact or prevent the powder from segregating, and can be removed before or during sintering. Dopant (additive) A small amount of substance added to the metal powder in order to prevent or control the recrystallization or grain growth of the sintered body during sintering or during use. (Mainly used for tungsten powder metallurgy) Lubricant lubricant is added to the powder in order to reduce the friction between the particles and the surface of the compact and the mold wall. Plasticizer plasticizer is used as a binder, a thermoplastic material designed to improve powder formability.

Warm pressing The uniaxial powder pressing is usually performed at a temperature between the ambient temperature and the temperature at which diffusion may occur, and is intended to enhance densification. 8. Hot pressing The uniaxial pressing of hot pressing powder or green compact at high temperature activates diffusion and creep phenomena. 9.
