Improving the return on R&D investments

TECHNOLOGY SUMMARY

The technology is based on the infiltration of matrix metals into porous preform through high pressure based mechanisms.

BENEFITS

  • More quality: The method minimizes the oxidation and removes oxides on the surface of the melt. In addition, it increases the preservation of the preform and minimizes the residual porosity.
  • Less cost: For magnesium and derivate alloys the container can be produced at low cost from low carbon steel

APPLICATIONS

The current system can be used in different sectors involved in material manufacturing such as:

  • Aeronautics
  • Automotive
  • Mining
  • Energy systems
  • Biomedicine

TAGs

  • Matrix metal composites
  • Reinforced materials
  • Ceramics
  • Material manufacturing
  • High preassure
