As 3D printing technology continues to advance, the demand for high-quality printing materials has never been greater. One such material is TC4 alloy powder, which has a wide range of applications in aerospace, engineering, and medical industries. One of the main challenges when it comes to printing with TC4 alloy powder is creating a consistent and high-quality powder that can be used in the printing process. In this article, we will explore the different methods for preparing TC4 alloy powder for 3D printing.
As one of the most important characterization parameters of nano powder, particle size directly affects the physical and chemical properties of the powder, and then affects the performance of the final product. Therefore, its detection technology is an important tool for industrial production and quality management, and plays an irreplaceable role in improving product quality, reducing production costs, and ensuring product safety and effectiveness. This article will start from the principle and compare three common methods for powder particle size detection: electron microscopy, laser particle size analysis, and X-ray diffraction line width method, and analyze the advantages, disadvantages, and applicability of different particle size testing methods.
As an important physical property of powders, specific surface area refers to the total surface area per unit mass of oxide powder. And its size is influenced by various factors. Firstly, particle size is an important factor affecting the specific surface area of powders. The smaller the particles, the larger the specific surface area. This is because the smaller the particle size, the larger the surface area of each individual particle, thereby increasing the total surface area per unit mass of powder.
Copper and copper alloys have excellent physical and chemical properties, such as high conductivity, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance, and are widely used in the power industry, thermal management systems, nuclear power plants, and aerospace industry. High strength, wear-resistant, and corrosion-resistant copper alloys are used for automotive parts and daily necessities.
