The effect of a rubber mould on densification behavior of aluminum alloy powder was investigated under cold isostatic compaction. A thickness of rubber mould and friction effect between die wall and rubber mould were also studied. The hyperelastic constitutive equation based on the Ogden strain energy potential was employed to analyze deformation of rubber. The elastoplastic constitutive equation of Shima and Oyane and that of Lee on densification were implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS) to simulate densification of metal powder for cold isostatic pressing and rubber isostatic pressing. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for densification and deformation of aluminum alloy powder under isostatic compaction.

A finite element analysis for near-net-shape forming of A16061 powder was performed under warm rubber isostatic pressing and warm die pressing. The advantages of warm compaction by rubber isostatic pressing were discussed to obtain a part with better density distributions. The shape of rubber mold was designed by determining a cavity shape that provides a desired shape of the final powder compact. To simulate densification and deformed shape of a powder compact during pressing, the elastoplastic constitutive equation based on yield function of Shima-Oyane was implemented into a finite element program(ABAQUS). The hyperelastic constitutive equation based on the Ogden strain energy Potential was employed to analyze nonlinear elastic response of rubber. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for Al6061 powder compacts under warm die pressing and warm isostatic pressing.

The effect of a rubber mould on densification and deformation of aluminum alloy powder was investigated during warm isostatic pressing. The hyperelastic constitutive equations based on various strain energy potentials were employed to analyze deformation of rubber. The parameters in the strain energy potentials were obtained from experimental data for uniaxial and volumetric compression of Viton rubber at two warm temperatures. For elastoplastic response, the yield function of Shima and Oyane was implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS) to predict compaction responses of metal powder during warm isostatic pressing. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for densification and deformation of aluminum alloy powder with/without a rubber mould under warm die pressing.

The effect of rubber mold on densification behavior of pure iron powder was investigated under cold isostatic pressing. The thickness effect of rubber mold was also studied. The elastoplastic constitutive equation based on the yield function of Shima and Oyane was implemented into the finite element program(ABAQUS) to predict compaction responses of metal powder under cold isostatic pressing. The hyperelastic constitutive equation based on Moony-Rivlin and Ogden strain energy potentials was also employed to analyze deformation of rubber mold. The coefficients of the strain energy potentials were obtained from tension and volumetric compression data of rubber. Finite element results were compared with experimental data for densification of pure iron powder under cold isostatic pressing.

In this study, it was aimed to develop the re-use technology of ultra-fine silicon powders, by-products during the current production process of high purity poly-Si feedstock. For this goal, the compacts of the silicon powders were tried to fabricate by CIP (Cold Isostatic Pressing) method using silicon rubber mold without chemical binder materials. The density ratio of the silicon powder compacts reached 74%. In order to simulate the actual handling and charging conditions of feedstock material in casting process, a shaking test was carried out and mass loss measured. Finally, the silicon powder compacts were melted using a cold crucible induction melting method and the purity assessment was conducted by Hall effect measurement.

Stress distribution and interfacial debonding process at the interface between a rubber mold and a powder compact were analyzed during unloading under cold isostatic pressing. The Cap model proposed by Lee and Kim was used for densification behavior of powder based on the parameters involved in the yield function of general Cap model and volumetric strain evolution. Cohesive elements incorporating a bilinear cohesive zone model were also used to simulate interfacial debonding process. The Cap model and the cohesive zone model were implemented into a finite element program (ABAQUS). Densification behavior of powder was investigated under various interface conditions between a rubber mold and a powder compact during loading. The residual tensile stress at the interface was investigated for rubber molds with various elastic moduli under perfect bonding condition. The variations of the elastic energy density of a rubber mold and the maximum principal stress of a powder compact were calculated for several interfacial strengths at the interface during unloading.

High $T_c(Y_{0.5}Nd_{0.25}Sm_{0.25})Ba_2Cu_3O_y[(YNS)-123]$ superconductors with/without $CeO_2$ additive were systematically investigated by the zone melt growth process in air. Cylindrical green rods of (YNS)-123 oxides were fabricated by cold isostatic pressing (CIP) method using rubber mould. A sample prepared by this method showed well-textured microstructure, and $(Y_{0.5}Nd_{0.25}Sm_{0.25})_2BaCuO_5[(YNS)211]$ nonsuperconducting inclusions were uniformly dispersed in large $(Y_{0.5}Nd_{0.25}Sm_{0.25})Ba_2Cu_3O_y$[(YNS)123] superconducting matrix. In this study, optimum melting temperature and growth rate were $1100^{\circ}C$ and 3 mm/hr, respectively. The directionally melt-textured (YNS)-123 sample with $CeO_2$ additive showed an onset critical temperature $(T_c)\;T_c{\geq}93K$ and sharp superconducting transition.
