Abstract
Thermoanalytical methods are used for investigation of outgassing and sintering of hardmetals. Shrinkage (DILA), mass loss (TG), gas evolution (EGA - mass spectrometry) and thermal effects (DSC) allow to describe sintering processes. The results may be applied for better understanding of technological procedures, e.g. for improvements of temperature-time-atmosphere cycles in the production scale.
