Fabrication of metallic implants using palm based binder through MIM process

Metal Injection moulding (MIM) is an advanced near net shape forming process for high quality of complex shapes combined with high properties of materials. For economic reasons, it is necessary to have demand for a large quantity of parts. This paper presents the attempt to manufacture metallic impl...

The stainless steel powder with the median particle size of 16 μm and a binder consisting of major fraction of palm stearin and a minor fraction of polyethylene were mixed at 160°C using a sigma-blade mixer for one hour to prepare the feedstock of the fracture fixation plates.
