Empress 2 consists of lithium disilicate glass ceramic as framework material (Figure 12) which is then coated with sintered glass ceramic.
The material is then in a partially burnt and slightly sintered state, but it is not fully clinkered and would not make Portland cement.
The magnets are either sintered or directionally cast, and then annealed in a magnetic field.
Parallel to the production of high-grade steels is Sheffield's development of sintered carbides for use on tipped cutting tools and in certain dies.
Race Clutch Disk This consists of a steel hub riveted to a steel disk on which eight sintered copper pads are installed.
