    摘要: A method for spherically granulating and agglomerating metal particles such as tantalum and/or niobium powders is described in the present invention, which includes the steps of: a). comminuting the metal particles to form fine particles having D50 less than 50 μm; b). granulating the comminuted metal particles comprising volatile liquid, for example, tantalum and/or niobium particles comprising volatile liquid, to form wet spherical particles; c). still drying the wet spherical particles and removing volatile liquid to form flowable pre-agglomerated particles with increased bulk density; d). heat treating the pre-agglomerated particles; e). screening the heat treated powder to obtain the flowable agglomerated particles. The present invention provides a flowable spherical agglomerated metal particles, and especially tantalum and/or niobium particles having improved properties. The present agglomerated tantalum powder have a flow rate of at least about 2.0 g/sec, a BET surface area of from about 0.2 to about 6.0 m2/g, a FSSS of at least 1.0 μm, a Scott bulk density of from about 1.2 g/cm3 to about 5.5 g/cm3. The present agglomerated niobium powder have a flow rate of at least about 1.0 g/sec, a BET surface area of from about 0.5 to about 8.0 m2/g, a FSSS of at least 1.0 μm, a Scott bulk density of from about 0.7 g/cm3 to about 3.5 g/cm3. Said tantalum and/or niobium metal particles have improved pore size distribution of the sintered anodes and increased pellet crush strength. The present invention further provides an electrolytic capacitor anodes made from the tantalum and/or niobium particles according to the present invention having a capacitance of from about 5,000 μFV/g to about 300,000 μFV/g.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for manufacture of silver-based composite powders for electrical contact materials. The invention relates also to electrical contact materials made from such composite powders. The process comprises a high energy dispersing process of wet silver oxide (Ag2O) with additional second oxide components in aqueous suspension. The high energy dispersing process can be conducted by high shear mixing or by high energy milling. Preferably high speed dispersing units working at rotating speeds in the range of 5,000 to 30,000 rpm or high energy mills such as attritor mills are used. The new process is versatile, economical and offers access to a broad spectrum of contact materials. The silver-based composite powders made according to the new process yield contact materials with a highly dispersed microstructures and superior material characteristics.
