| Summary: | To respond to the requirements for porous Ti sheet with the balanced properties of high porosity and good mechanical properties, and to optimize the manufacturing conditions of the simple powder-filling plus sintering process, effects of sintering temperatures on density and bending strength in porous Ti sheet were investigated. The optimum sintering condition was 900-950 °C for 1h to obtain porous Ti sheet with the balanced density ratio (around 40%) and high bending strength. The polyhedron shape of HDH powders contributed to those balanced properties, in which localized sintering raised bending strength with keeping high porosity (low density). Using the optimum manufacturing conditions, large sized porous Ti sheet of 400 × 800 × 0.5 mm was successfully manufactured.
