Abstract Scope |
Understanding the micro-structure evolution of particle agglomerates at elevated temperatures during the densification process is crucial to provide insights into sintering behavior of certain nuclear waste processing applications or other metal particle agglomerates. In this work, tomographic scans were collected on individual particle agglomerates, including Nano Al, Nano Cu, and Vanadinite, while heating the samples using the FXI beamline furnace, located at Brookhaven National Laboratory, to view particles throughout their densification process. This data is used to track particles throughout the thermal sintering process and view the formation of agglomerates, providing new information on the sintering process at a nano-scale level. This work concludes by discussing the implications on using nano-CT to view agglomerate formation to inform modeling and simulation efforts, as well as optimizing the sintering process. |
