Abstract
The present invention relates to an evaluation method of a laminate molding powder, for evaluating a laminate molding powder on the basis of stable determination criteria. In this laminate molding powder evaluation method, the fluidity with which a uniform powder layer can be formed in laminate molding is evaluated using the adhesive force of the powder calculated from the fracture envelope obtained by shear testing. Further, the shear testing is performed with a powder rheometer, and the adhesive force is calculated from the relation between vertical stress and shear stress in the powder rheometer. If the adhesive force is less than or equal to 0.450 kPa, then the powder is evaluated as being capable of forming a uniform powder layer in laminate molding. Furthermore, if the 50% particle diameter of the powder, measured with a laser diffraction method, is 3-250 µm and/or the apparent density of the powder is greater than or equal to 3.5 g/cm3, then the powder is evaluated as capable of forming a uniform powder layer in laminate molding.

METAL NANOPARTICLES, DISPERSION CONTAINING SAME, AND PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF SAME
For the purpose of producing a large quantity of metal nanoparticles capable of being dispersed stably in a solvent without requiring the addition of any aggregation-inhibiting substance such as a surfactant and at low cost, the metal nanoparticles is produced through the steps mentioned below. A powder of a metal compound is suspended in a solvent. Subsequently, the suspension is heated at a predetermined temperature while passing through an atmosphere of an inert gas, a hydrogen gas or other non-oxidative gas. Specifically, for example, a silver oxide miropowder is used as a raw material powder, and a special-grade γ-butyrolactone reagent is used as the solvent. The solvent in a volume of 5 mL is placed in a 10-mL glass vessel, the raw material powder in an amount of about 40 mg is introduced into the glass vessel, and the resulting mixture is heated at about 135˚C for 15 minutes on a hot plate under deaeration conditions in which the bubbling with a nitrogen gas is carried out at a rate of about 20 mL per minute while agitating the mixture by means of a magnetic stirrer.
