Compaction of Briquettes | Nature

ABSTRACT WHEN a powder is compacted by a simple application of pressure, the density and strength of the compact so formed (measured after the pressure has been released) are determined by

the pressure used, but ultimately they approach limiting values which are not exceeded by further increasing the pressure. The limiting density of the compact falls short of the density of

the material of the powder by an appreciable margin, say 4–20 per cent, depending on the material used (Fig. 1). Access through your institution Buy or subscribe This is a preview of
