Sintering Theory and Practice

A renowned pioneer in the field and the recipient of numerous awards for his research, German has written a comprehensive book which emphasizes the theory of sintering but includes information on the sintering behavior of diverse engineered materials--metals, alloys, oxide ceramics, composites, carbides, intermetallic glasses and polymers. He identifies key variables, measurements, systems, applications and calculation techniques. The text's format enables readers to seek specific information on a material, processing problem or concept without reading all sections in sequence.
