Metal Injection Mold (MIM) Powder Blends

Our company’s facility produces Metal Injection Molding (MIM) powder blends.  MIM is a processing method which grew out of two well established techniques for producing small, intricate, and/or complex shaped parts: the injection molding technology as applied in the polymer industry and conventional powder metallurgy.

Pacific Particulate Materials (PPM) Ltd. offers three basic groups of MIM powder blends for customers. We have also provided examples of applications for each group:

Group I : Custom metal powder powder blend compostions, such as iron, nickel, and/or copper based.

Group II : Tungsten Carbide powder (cemented carbide) blends with binder metals such as cobalt and/or nickel. Example: Parts requiring high wear resistance.

Group III : Cermet and/or powder blends using for example, titanium carbide powder with binder metals such as molybdenum, nickel, iron, or combinations of these nickel. Example: Parts requiring high wear resistance and lighter weight than tungsten carbide.


We have extensive experience and are familiar with the requirements of domestic and international Metal Injection Mold powder customers. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact our capable and experienced engineering staff.  Samples for qualification are available upon request.
