✦ Synopsis


The paper describes the fabrication of micro gears of diameter and height 1 mm by micro powder injection moulding. 316L stainless steel powder of 2.4 Β΅m (d 50 ) is mixed with a multi-component wax-based binder system. The feedstock is then injection-moulded into micro gears followed by debinding and sintering. The microstructure of the micro gear at its tooth and hub is studied by electron backscattered diffraction. The average grain size at the hub is ~5 Β΅m. However, a high content of annealing twin and a significant grain growth is found at the tooth.

Films and powders of iron oxide (Fe 2 O 3 ) prepared by two different sol-gel syntheses, starting from Fe(NO 3 ) 3 Ð9H 2 O or FeCl 3 Ð6H 2 O, were investigated by Raman microscopy. Different phases with different morphology were produced according to the preparation. The spectra obtained in the micr
