(a) The relationship between the amount of space holder added and the final percentage of porosity in the sintered samples; (b) mechanical strength of samples with different amounts of porosity under compression; (c) the relationship between the amount of space holder added and the volume shrinkage of samples after sintering; (d) the change in the relative yield stress with the change in the relative density with two fitted curves, namely, linear and power law.
