Abstract
Metal injection molding feedstocks are typically highly filled thermop lastic systems. In this study, the effects of feedstock composition on flow properties are examined using the capillary rheometer and the ex trusion plastometer. The two techniques are also compared with respect to sensitivity to feedstock composition and their utility in predicti ng variations in processing performance.
