Introduction to Powder Metallurgy - The Process and its Products

This free 32-page booklet describes, in some detail, why products are made by the PM process; powder production methods; methods for powder consolidation; sintering and sintering atmospheres; post-sintering operations (sizing, heat treatment, coatings, etc.), and many examples of PM products.

An extremely useful introduction to PM technology for undergraduates on courses involving materials engineering and mechanical engineering.
