Abstract:
A method of manufacturing a sintered body includes a first process of forming a metal powder containing carbon into a compact having a predetermined shape and a second process of baking the compact in a hermetically sealed space so as to produce a sintered body. The hermetically sealed space has an atmosphere having a pressure of 60 kPa to 140 kPa and contains a hydrogen gas and an oxygen gas. The sum of partial pressures of the hydrogen gas and the oxygen gas is not more than 3 Pa.
Abstract:
[Object] A bulk material which is suitably used as a material for actuator and sensor elements is formed from a Fe—Ga base magnetoresistive alloy and a Ti—Ni base shape memory alloy taking advantage of crystal miniaturization and anisotropy as well as reduction of precipitates (equilibrium state in state diagram) and non-equilibrium phases peculiar to liquid rapidly solidified materials, and the performance of the material is enhanced by a production method thereof which has cost advantage over a melt method. [Construction] A rapidly solidified material having a particular rapidly solidified texture of a Fe—Ga magnetostrictive alloy or a TiNi-based shape-memory alloy and properties derived therefrom is formed into slices which are laminated to each other in a die, or is formed into a powder or chops which are filled in the die. Subsequently, spark plasma sintering is performed so that bonds between the slices, grains of the powder, or the chops are formed at a high density to form a bulk alloy, followed by annealing whenever necessary, so that the properties of the alloy are improved.
Abstract:
Suppression or enhancement of various properties of a liquid fluid is aimed by improving uniform dispersion of nanoparticles by means of making a state in which no oxidized film exists on the surfaces of the nanoparticles to be dispersed in the liquid fluid. The location of the liquid fluid is confirmed with ease by enhancing the brightness of light emission of the fluid through uniform dispersion of the nanoparticles in the liquid fluid containing a material having a flame reaction. In this way, as to liquid fluids utilized in various industries, it is possible to offer a technology to desirably enhance or suppress a property desired to be enhanced and a property desired to be suppressed among various properties that its constituents have.
