Advanced powder technology; proceedings. (Key engineering materials; v.189-191) by International Latin-American Conference on Powder Technology (2nd: 1999: Foz do Iguacu, Brazil) - 2001

Trans Tech Publications, 2001. Paperback. New Book. Paperback. In these proceedings from the November 1999 conference in Brazil, recent advances in powder technology are presented. Special attention is given to the synthesis and processing of various ceramics, including electroceramics, biomaterials, and nanocomposites. Powder production and compaction, sintering, processing, and the characterization of important alloys and metal matrix composites are also discussed, with consideration of the corrosion, mechanical, and magnetic properties of each. Emphasis is placed on wet processing of metal-ceramic particulate systems, high energy milling, mechanical alloying and reactive milling, metal injection molding, sintering atmospheres, and metal ceramic nanocomposites.
