Each production process has certain potentials as well as certain limitations. You will need to identify and explain three main limitations and three main advantages of current production methods for metals and ceramics. Critically discuss your suggestions for future improvement.
quick question about ceramic materials.
why are ceramic samples difficult to mold into different shapes?
thanks and will definitely rate!
An electrical contact material is produced by infiltrating copper into aporous tungsten carbide (WC) compact. The density of the final composite is 12.3g/cm3. Assuming that all of the pores are filled with copper, calculate (a) the volumefraction of copper in the composite, (b) the volume fraction of pores in the WCcompact prior to infiltration, and (c) the original density of the WC compact beforeinfiltration.
