This book is focused on composites involving powders as the starting materials. It provides relevant information for questions related to the selection of constituent phases, most economic fabrication routes, proper testing procedures, and product optimization. The field is sufficiently advanced that predictive models guide many decisions. Applications are illustrated over a broad range of material and property combinations. This title includes:
•Selection of phases with consideration of intersolubility & interface
•Microstructure, especially the role of phase connectivity
•Fabrication approaches, especially net-shape consolidation
•Assessment of typical properties, testing techniques & industry standards
•Design & trade-off decisions involved in optimization, including cost
•Applications, both those that have matured and some emerging prospects.
