The effect of copper and antimony on the mechanical properties of pewter alloys made by conventional and microwave powder sintering

Three different compositions of pewter alloy made using tin, copper and antimony powders were sintered using microwave and conventional sintering. The effect on mechanical properties from green density, sintering method and the weight percentage of copper and antimony added to the tin alloy were exa...
