Spark plasma sintering often relies on slightly lower temperatures and significantly reduced processing times compared to hot pressing.

In the friction material industry, direct hot pressing plays an increasing role in production of sintered brake pads and clutches.

Hot pressing is a popular method for obtaining densified UHTC materials that relies upon both high temperatures and pressures to produce densified materials.
14.
It is commonly formed into a solid by a process called hot pressing, where the powders are pressed together using both heat and pressure.
15.
Thus, fine-grained polycrystalline nanomaterials can be produced and formed into complex geometries using conventional ceramic forming techniques such as hot pressing and slip casting.
16.
Hot pressing may result in improved densities for UHTCs, but it is an expensive technique that relies on high temperatures and pressures to provide useful materials.
17.
Modern mechanical oil mills can process up to 4, 000 tons per day in hot pressing processes, and up to 25 tons per day cold pressed.
18.
Of these technologies the most well known is resistance sintering ( also called hot pressing ) and spark plasma sintering, while electro sinter forging is the latest advancement in this field.
19.
Within hot pressing technology, three distinctly different types of heating can be found in use : induction heating, indirect resistance heating and field assisted sintering technique ( FAST ) / direct hot pressing.
