Popis: Sintering of powder compacts can lead to an increase in their density, with the neck between the particles growing. Powder sintering diagrams are constructed in the following coordinates: the relative size of the particle radius (the size of the neck between the sintered particles divided by the particle radius) and the homological melting temperature of the material. To construct sintering diagrams, it is necessary to solve a system of pairs of rate equations for the existing sintering mechanisms. The solution gives the equations of the boundaries separating the regions on the graph “relative radius of the particles–homological temperature,” in which the sintering rate by one mechanism is greater than the other. At these boundaries, the two selected sintering mechanisms make equal contributions to the growth rate of the neck between particles. Sintering diagrams of titanium powders of various dispersions were constructed (with an average particle size of 0.1, 1, 5, and 10 μm.). The sintering diagrams show that the dominant mechanisms of the sintering of titanium micro- and nanopowders in the temperature range of 0.6–0.9 of the absolute melting temperature are surface diffusion from the surface and volume diffusion of the substance from the sources at the boundaries of grains.
