Handbook of Non-Ferrous Metal Powders: Technologies and Applications, Second Edition, provides information on the manufacture and use of powders of non-ferrous metals that has taken place for many years in the area previously known as Soviet Russia. It presents the huge amount of knowledge and experience that has built up over the last fifty years. Originally published in Russia by several prominent scientists, researchers and engineers, this presents an update to the first book that includes sections on classification, properties, treatment methods and production. This updated edition contains new content on the powders, along with newer methods of 3D printing. Covers the manufacturing methods, properties and importance of the following metals: aluminum, titanium, magnesium, copper, nickel, cobalt, zinc, cadmium, noble metals, rare earth metals, lead, tin and bismuth Includes new content on recent advances, such as additive manufacturing and 3D printing of non-ferrous metal alloys and specific powders for advanced techniques, including metal injection molding technologies Expands on topics such as safety engineering in the production of powders and advanced areas of engineering research, such as nanopowder processes

Adopting a holistic approach to materials simulation, this monograph covers four very important structural materials: aluminum, carbon steels, superalloys, and plastics. Following an introduction to the concept of integral modeling, the book goes on to cover a wide range of production steps and usage, including melt flow and solidification behavior, coating, shaping, thermal treatment, deep drawing, hardness and ductility, damage initiation, and deformation behavior.

Cemented Carbides describes all aspects related to the fabrication and examination of cemented carbides, starting from the production of raw materials and ending with final operations of surface finishing and coating. Basic phase diagrams of WC-based cemented carbides are presented and analyzed. Technological processes and equipment employed on different stages of the cemented carbide manufacture, including milling, granulation, pressing, sintering, surface finishing and deposing wear-resistant coatings are described, as well as modern techniques and instruments employed for controlling the microstructure and properties of cemented carbide. Describes all aspects related to the fabrication and examination of cemented carbides, starting from the production of raw materials and ending with final operations of surface finishing and coating Fills a gap in our current offerings surrounding the topic Written by one of the top experts in the field, a former Russian scientist, allowing readers to tap into that country’s wealth of knowledge on this topic

The book covers new sintering techniques on ceramic materials, metals and composites as well as reprocessed PTFE. The book covers theoretical as well as experimental aspects on Spark Plasma Sintered (SPS) Porous copper, development of cutting blades with high hardness and resistance to cracking and wear, increased microhardness of austenitic steel ? TiB2 composites obtained with high pressure - high temperature sintering, Al2O3 porous body with cotton as the template and excellent thermal insulation with direct application for refractories as well as Metal matrix composites added nanostructured tantalum carbide and an overview of different sintering techniques used in powder metallurgy. Finally recycling of PTFE scrap materials using ram extrusion and compression molding is described.
