Question

The size distribution of the powder particles used in Powder Metallurgy process can be determined by

• A. Laser scattering
• B. Laser reflection
• C. Laser absorption
• D. Laser penetration

Hint:

Laser scattering is a widely used method for determining the size distribution of powder particles in Powder Metallurgy.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

In Powder Metallurgy, the size distribution of powder particles is crucial for controlling the properties of the final product. One of the most commonly used techniques for determining the particle size distribution is Laser Scattering.

- Laser scattering works by passing a laser beam through a sample of powder particles and measuring the scattering of light at different angles. This method provides information about the size distribution of the particles based on how light is scattered by them.
- Laser reflection, laser absorption, and laser penetration are not typically used to determine the particle size distribution in powder metallurgy.

Thus, the correct method is Laser Scattering.
Final Answer: (A)
