Bi. Bondarenko et al., OVEN OPERATION IN SINTERING POWDER COMPONENTS PLASTICIZED WITH ZINC STEARATE, Powder metallurgy and metal ceramics, 32(5), 1993, pp. 461-464
A mechanism is described for the pyrolysis of zinc stearate in relatio
n to the processes that occur in each sintering zone. The mechanism of
formation is considered for the deposits in the working space. This i
s based on the flow of heavy vapor from the decomposition products und
er gravity. Designs are considered for the preheating chamber, which p
rovide almost ideal conditions for the removal of the destruction prod
ucts not only from the oven but also from the components.
