Metal encased objects and method for preparation thereof.

摘要

An improved method for encasing objects in metal is disclosed as are the novel encased objects so prepared. An object is wrapped with a sheet comprising sinterable particulate or powdered metal and an organic binder, and is then fired to volatilize the binder and to sinter the particulate metal into a unitary metal structure. In the preferred embodiment of this invention, the object to be encased is a green sinterable particulate object which undergoes sintering simultaneously with the particulate metal casing during the firing step.
