Abstract
A method for the implosive consolidation into a solid body of a mass of free particles, which mass consists, selectively, entirely of amorphous particles, or a mixture of amorphous and nonamorphous particles. During the consolidation act, pressure and temperature are controlled in a manner which assures that the consolidated amorphous particles in the solid body exhibit substantially the same amorphous characteristics as those displayed by the unconsolidated, free amorphous particles.
