Abstract
Experiments are described on the preparation of sintered iron bodies by slip casting iron oxide, followed by reduction and sintering. It is shown that it is possible to produce iron parts of different shapes and sizes by a single reduction + sintering treatment. The introduction of copper by adding copper oxide to the iron oxide overcomes certain drawbacks and improves the properties of the final product.
