The effect of the activating additions on the acceleration of diffusion "flow" of titanium carbide is shown by the values of the coefficients
of shear viscosity ~ which were calculated by us on the basis of the ratio

The values of the activation energy of the compaction process; in this equation ~ 0 is the shear viscosity at t = O,

In the table we give the calculated values of the i n i t i a l shear viscosity of titanium carbide for various temperatures
with and without the activating agent.

where o is the surface tension of the c o b a l t m e l t on the liquid--gas interface, 0 is the l i m i t i n g angle of wetting,
is the angle depending on the amount of liquid phase, and Pz and Pz are the radii of curvature of the liquid.
Because of the presence of the liquid c o b a l t between the film particles the friction between them sharply d e creases and the m o b i l i t y increases, leading to the displacement of particles and, as could be expected, to shrinkage
of the part.
The contacts between the particles are formed at this stage of sintering by the recrystallization of the m a t e r i a l
of spherical particles through the liquid phase. The rate of recrystallization is particularly high at the points of contact with m a x i m u m amount of liquid phase. With the sintering temperature rising above 2000~ when the vapor
pressure of cobalt sharply increases and the amount of the liquid phase becomes almost negligibIe, the c a p i l l a r y
forces joining the particles reach their m a x i m u m values and Eq. (4) changes to:

This is accompanied by a further compaction of the part and a reduction of its porosity.

sintering and that an increase of strength takes place. By adding
5-30% of a filler which completely evaporates during sintering [8]
it is possible to control the permeability and the dimensions of pores. Figure 5 shows the dependence of porosity on
the filler content (NH4C1) for titanium carbide. The graph shows that an increase of the filler content increases tile
porosity by 30% of its initial value.

SUMMARY
The investigation being described was concerned with the processes of sintering of some materials made from
carbides and borides of some high-melting-point metals (TIC, WC, ZrB z, TiB2). The kinetics of the activated sintering of titanium carbide was investigated. The data obtained show the dependence of porosity on sintering time
and give the values of the secondary and shear viscosities of titanium carbide for various temperatures and durations
of sintering. The activation energies of sintering were calculated for titanium carbide to which some cobalt chloride
was added, and without this addition.
