State whether the following is true or false.
Hot isostatic pressing works on a component with open, interconnected porosity.

  • A.True
  • B.False
  • C.True only at large scales
  • D.False only at small scales

Answer: B

The pressurising gas enters the pores and exerts no compacting force at all. Either the part is sintered to closed porosity first or it is sealed inside a metal can for the cycle. Open porosity would simply admit the gas and defeat the process.
