The authors investigated the mechanical mixing and compacting briquettes of nickel powder (particle size 30...75 μm) and nanopowder modifier SiC+Si3N4 (particle size 70...100 nanometers), obtained by the azide technology SHS. The mixtures containing 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% of the modifier were investigated. Mechanical mixing was carried out during 60 minutes in planetary mill «Pulverizette-5». Some physic-technological properties of the obtained powder mixtures, such as, particle size distribution, density, bulk weight and flowability, are determined. The powder compositions' pressing was carried out on hydraulic press PSU-50 with pressure 65...700 MPa. Nanopowder ligature briquettes of 18.2 mm diameter, height to 4.2 mm, weighing 5 grams, with relative density 70...89% and porosity 11...30%, intended for subsequent input in aluminum melt with the aim of modification are obtained. |
