Effect Of Bio Field Treatment On The Physical And Thermal Characteristics Of Silicon, Tin And Lead Powders, Mahendra Kumar Trivedi, Shrikant Patil, Rama Mohan Tallapragada

Mahendra Kumar Trivedi

Silicon, tin and lead powders belong to group IV in periodic table and exhibit decreasing semi conducting nature towards the bottom of the group. These are very useful in producing non ferrous powder metallurgy components.

In the present investigation silicon, tin and lead powders are exposed to bio field. Both the exposed and unexposed powders are later characterized by various techniques. The average particle size, after an initial decrease is found to increase with increase in number of days after treatment although the size is lee than that exhibited by untreated powder, suggesting the operation of competing mechanisms fracture and …
