Abstract
A method of casting a powdered material. A slurry is formed by dispersing metal powder or ceramic powder into a dispersing medium mainly consisting of a substance extractable by a liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide and having a melting point between 0.degree. C. and 100.degree. C., and the slurry is poured into a liquid non-absorbing mold where the slurry is cooled to freeze and solidify into a molding. The main constituent of the dispersing medium in the molding is extracted and removed by the liquid or supercritical carbon dioxide.
