The effects of various TPNR binder compositions on feedstock preparation for MIM process

Metal injection moulding (MIM) feedstock is a mixture of metal powder and binder. The function of the binder system is to provide flow ability of the metal particles and shape retention of the moulded parts. The behaviour of the feedstock depends greatly on the binder formulations and its compositio...
