sinter - cause (ores or powdery metals) to become a coherent mass by heating without melting
shape, mould, mold, form, forge, work - make something, usually for a specific function; "She molded the rice balls carefully"; "Form cylinders from the dough"; "shape a figure"; "Work the metal into a sword"
Powders were initially sieved according to ASTM B 214-99 on mechanical sieve shaker to get appropriate small particle size as smaller particles has a larger pore/solid interfacial area which results in an increased driving force for sintering [5].
Summary: Since last few years, sintering is being used for manufacturing important automotive and aerospace components such as transmission gears, axles, etc.
The sintering process is the experimental technique used to produce polycrystalline ceramic bodies, and it has a huge importance in the development of high-density ceramics [10].
Compared with the sintering of ordinary iron ore, vanadium-titanium magnetite has lower iron, FeO, and Si[O.sub.2] contents but higher Ti[O.sub.2], MgO, and [Al.sub.2][O.sub.3] contents.
