Abstract

The invention first relates to a feedstock for PIM, including a metal or ceramic powder; a polymeric binder; metallic or ceramic fibers or nanofibers, the fibers or nanofibers being metallic when the powder is metallic, and the fibers or nanofibers being ceramic when the powder is ceramic. It also relates to the method for producing such a feedstock, as well as the method for producing parts by means of powder injection molding (PIM) using said feedstock.
