Powder Metallurgy: Its Engineering Consideration and Applications on Copper

About the book Powder metallurgy is the technology of utilizing metal powders, offers the engineer a means conserving materials, reducing machining and securing a uniform product at a reasonable cost. The development in this fabrication method of making useful products have made engineers and producers do what they could not do before in the recent years. Okwuagbala Uzochukwu Mike P, an engineer in the field of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering after good experience and proper research wrote a book in this section not just considering “Powder Metallurgy” but also details out its engineering consideration and applications on copper and the alloys. Chapter 1 is Overview on Powder Metallurgy. This covers the definition of powder metallurgy from different scholars and Metallurgy organizations. Also covered in this chapter are basic processes for achieving powder metallurgy, equipments for powder metallurgy, safety precautions during electrolysis for metal power production, difference between powder metallurgy and casting and advantages of powder metallurgy. In chapter 2, the interest is on the wide applications of copper powder in today engineering and other important areas of interest. This chapter will take you far to know deep things on metallurgy of copper powder application. The chapter explains Applications of Copper Powder and Metallurgy of copper powder production. Self-lubricating bearings in the recent years have been the backbone of many manufacturing firms in the recent years. This new bearing that have special applications have been on high demands and have made many companies make billions of dollars as profits. Does copper powder have any role to play in the production of this kind of bearing? Chapter 3 covers category of self-lubricating bearing and how copper powder contributes to its production. Electronics products are all over the market. Many people today are able to feed themselves as well as their loved ones because they sale electronic devices and make their profits. But, before any elec
