Abstract
A novel process for preparing injection molding feedstock compounds in a continuous manner amenable to high volume manufacturing includes the steps of forming a mixture including metal and/or ceramic powders, a binder and a liquid carrier, supplying the components in a continuous manner to a twin screw extruder, forcing the homogeneous compounded mixture through an exit die, and cutting the extruded strand into pellets. The pellets are useful for shape-forming articles by various molding processes.
