Infiltration in Powder Metallurgy Main Image

Infiltration in Powder Metallurgy

Impregnation is a wonderful secondary process to fill the pores of powder metallurgy (PM) parts. There is another process to do it—Infiltration. Infiltration in powder metallurgy introduces molten metal through capillary action, filling the pores and solidifying to form a denser, more cohesive part. Since
