Alloy powder manufactured by the following process have spherical shapes ?

Correct answer: C. Atomisation

  • A. Electrochemical deposition
  • B. Gaseous reduction
  • C. Atomisation
  • D. Mechanical attrition

Explanation

Atomisation breaks a molten alloy stream into droplets, which solidify into nearly spherical powder particles because surface tension minimizes their surface area. Mechanical attrition, in contrast, usually produces irregular particles.
