Consider the following statements about pressure-assisted sintering.
1. Hot pressing applies uniaxial pressure at temperature.
2. Applied pressure permits full density at lower temperature.
3. Hot pressing is well suited to complex three-dimensional shapes.

  • A.1 only
  • B.All of them
  • C.1 and 2 only
  • D.3 only

Answer: C

Correct answer: 1 and 2 only

Statements 1 and 2 are correct: hot pressing applies uniaxial pressure at temperature, and that pressure permits full density at a lower temperature than pressureless sintering. Statement 3 is wrong, and it is the technique’s principal limitation - a uniaxial die can only produce simple shapes such as discs and plates, one at a time. Hot isostatic pressing exists to lift exactly that restriction.
