Abstract
Abstract A method for forming non-equilibrium and/or metastable metallic or non-metallic powder, foil or fine wire material into a solid body comprises charging the material into a metal container, subjecting the metal container containing the material to rolling at a temperature at which the inherent properties of the material are maintained, and thereafter removing the metal container.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 8
Claim 1
Independent Claim
115 words
In a method for forming a non-equilibrium and/or metastable metallic or non-metallic powder, foil or fine wire material into a solid shaped product which comprises charging said material into a metal container of sufficient strength to resist a rolling step; heating said metal container containing said powder, foil, or fine wire materials; subjecting said container containing said powder, foil, or fine wire material to a forced rolling step whereby a solid shaped product is formed; and cooling said product; the improvement which comprises carrying out said heating by rapidly heating said metal container together with said powder, foil, or fine wire material to a property preserving temperature, and rapidly cooling the obtained solid shaped product.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
115 words
In a method for forming a non-equilibrium and/or metastable metallic or non-metallic powder, foil or fine wire material into a solid shaped product which comprises charging said material into a metal container of sufficient strength to resist a rolling step; heating said metal container containing said powder, foil, or fine wire materials; subjecting said container containing said powder, foil, or fine wire material to a forced rolling step whereby a solid shaped product is formed; and cooling said product; the improvement which comprises carrying out said heating by rapidly heating said metal container together with said powder, foil, or fine wire material to a property preserving temperature, and rapidly cooling the obtained solid shaped product.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 in which vacuum or an inert gas atmosphere is maintained within said metal container.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
44 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 or 2 in which a hot bath is applied to heat said metal container together with said material charged into said metal container, and said material together with said container are water cooled after said rolling step.
Claim 5
Independent Claim
42 words
The method as claimed in any one of claims 1-3 in which said powder, foil or fine wire material is an amorphous alloy, and said property preserving temperature is less than the temperature where the onset of crystallization of said alloy occurs.
Claim 6
Independent Claim
43 words
The method as claimed in any one of claims 1-3 in which said powder, foil or fine wire material to be formed is a super-rapidly quenched alloy of A1-Fe, and said property preserving temperature is specified to be less than about 350° C.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
71 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 in which said powder, foil or fine wire material of a non-equilibrium/metastable metal is charged into a metal container of sufficient strength to resist a forming step in which a ratio of L/D, where L being length and D inside diameter of said metal container, is more than 10, and said metal container is subjected to rolling without sealing at a property preserving temperature.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
43 words
The method as claimed in claim 1 in which said non-equilibrium/metatasable metal powder is formed into a plate-like solid product and wherein a metal bond is formed into a tubular body and the opposing edges thereof are welded to form said metal containers.
