Special Issue on Powder Metallurgy

Powder metallurgy (PM) is a term covering a wide range of ways in which materials or components are made from metal powders. PM processes can avoid, or greatly reduce, the need to use metal removal processes, thereby drastically reducing yield losses in manufacture and often resulting in lower costs. PM is the ideal process for manufacturing durable, complex mechanical components such as gears, cams, sprockets and other multilevel parts.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Powder Metallurgy. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Technology of powder metallurgy
• Materials of powder metallurgy
• Metal powders and alloy powders
• Powder production techniques
• Metal forming technology
• Applications of powder metallurgy
• Powder metallurgy and particulate technology
• Metallic particulate materials
• Novel powder based materials
• Production and handling of powders
• Synthesis and consolidation of powder materials

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.

Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Powder Metallurgy” should be selected during your submission.
