Annual report dates come from the budget period on your award notice. That date is not public, so it is not shown here.

How we got this date

NSF lists this award's end date as 31 January 2027.
NSF rules say the final report is due no later than 120 days after that.
So the final report is due by 31 May 2027.

Abstract

Sintering is one of the most practical manufacturing processes in producing density-controlled materials from powder feedstock. However, producing industrially applicable powder alloy precursors is challenging. Although pre-mixing pure metal powders have allowed a wide range of compositions by conventional sintering, rapid heating and cooling in modern sintering techniques inevitably results in new but unwanted…
