A particulate for an additive manufacturing technique includes metallic particulate bodies with exterior surfaces bearing a polymeric coating. The polymeric coating is conformally disposed over the exterior surface that prevents the underlying metallic body from oxidation upon exposure to the ambient environment by isolating the metallic particulate bodies from the ambient environment. Feedstock materials for additive manufacturing techniques, and methods of making such feedstock, are also disclosed.

Polycrystalline diamond bodies having an annular region of diamond grains and a core region of diamond grains and methods of making the same are disclosed. In one embodiment, a polycrystalline diamond body includes an annular region of inter-bonded diamond grains having a first characteristic property and a core region of inter-bonded diamond grains bonded to the annular region and having a second characteristic property that differs from the first characteristic property. The annular region decreases in thickness from a perimeter surface of the polycrystalline diamond body towards a centerline axis.

A method of fabricating an impregnated fiber assembly, the method including introducing a first suspension including a first powder of solid particles into an inside volume defined by an inside face of a first fiber texture of hollow shape placed in a mold, an outer face of the first fiber texture being present facing a wall of the mold; using a centrifugal force to impregnate the first fiber texture with the first suspension by rotating the mold; after impregnating the first texture, positioning a second fiber texture on the inside face of the first fiber texture to obtain a fiber assembly; introducing a second suspension including a second powder of solid particles into the inside volume after putting the second fiber texture into position; and using a centrifugal force to impregnate the second fiber texture with the second suspension by rotating the mold to obtain an impregnated fiber assembly.

A manufacturing method of alloy powder comprises a liquid film forming step, a supplying step and a dividing step. In the liquid film forming step, a high speed fluid made of coolant liquid is shaped into a liquid film which has a predetermined thickness of 0.1 mm or more and receives a predetermined acceleration of 2.0?10.sup.4G or more along a thickness direction. In the supplying step, molten alloy which is not divided into a size of the predetermined thickness or less is supplied to the liquid film. In the dividing step, the molten alloy is divided into the size of the predetermined thickness or less by the high speed fluid to make alloy particles and keeping the alloy particles in the liquid film by the predetermined acceleration so that the alloy particles are continuously cooled in the high speed fluid.
