Description
Sintering is the process of forming materials and components from a powder under the action of thermal energy. It is a key materials science
subject: most ceramic materials and many specialist metal powder products for use in key industries such as electronics, automotive and
aerospace are formed this way. Written by one of the leading experts in the field, this book offers an unrivalled introduction to sintering
and sintering processes for students of materials science and engineering, and practicing engineers in industry.
The book is unique
in providing a complete grounding in the principles of sintering and equal coverage of the three key sintering processes: densification,
grain growth and microstructure. Students and professional engineers alike will be attracted by the emphasis on developing a detailed
understanding of the theory and practical processes of sintering, the balanced coverage of ceramic and metal sintering, and the accompanying
examination questions with selected solutions.
Audience
Senior undergraduate students, taught postgraduates, research students, professional researchers, engineers and materials scientists in industry and laboratories in the ceramics and metals industries
