Synthesis and properties of bulk graphene nanoplatelets consolidated by spark plasma sintering (2012, background): “shown to have many advantageous effects such as quick sintering times, grain growth inhibition, high densification, and improved bonding between composite phases [20,21].”
Fabrication and properties of nanocrystalline Co0.5FeNiCrTi0.5 high entropy alloy by MA–SPS technique (2013, background): “On the other hand, spark plasma sintering (SPS), which can rapidly consolidate the powders to high density by applying pressure and passing electric pulse current within short soaking time owing to rapid heating and cooling rates, is a novel sintering method to synthesize metallic or ceramic compoun”
Synthesis, sintering, and mechanical properties of nanocrystalline cemented tungsten carbide - A review (2009, background): “A comprehensive and critical review of the SPS process is beyond the scope of this paper, for which the reader is referred to the literature [95,96].”
