  • Publication number: 20230058595
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a multi-material part by additive manufacturing, includes the following steps: a) a step of providing a pre-treated metal powder comprising grains and an oxidized and porous layer on a surface of the grains; b) a selective laser powder-bed fusion step comprising implementation of steps i) and ii) as follows: i) a step of forming a layer from the pre-treated metal powder; ii) a step of melting by laser the layer, the melting step being carried out under a reactive atmosphere and comprising changing parameters of application of the laser so that at least a first region of the layer is converted so as to lower the electrical conductivity thereof, thus forming a dielectric, and so that at least a second region of the layer is densified without converting it, the at least a first region being formed when the parameters of application of the laser allow a first energy density to be applied to the first region and/or the laser beam to be kept for a first dwell time on the first region, th

  • Patent number: 9108277
    Abstract: A process for manufacturing a device comprising at least a support and a component, joined together by at least one braze, includes a brazing operation which is carried out starting from a metal oxalate. Advantageously, it is a silver oxalate or a mixture of silver and copper oxalates, the component and/or the support being covered with a film comprising gold or copper in contact with said braze and the component possibly being a power component.

  • Patent number: 7425284
    Abstract: The purpose of the invention is a process for making a solid part designed to form all or part of an anode for the production of aluminium by fused bath electrolysis, containing a cermet formed from at least one metallic oxide such as a mixed oxide with spinel structure, and at least one metallic phase, in which a mixed oxide is used containing a metal R in the form of a cation in its chemical structure, the said metal R being fully or partly reducible by a reduction operation during the manufacturing process, so as to form all or part of the said metallic phase. This process can provide a cermet with a uniform distribution of fine metallic particles.
