"In this document, one of a series dealing with specialized processes, the methodology and results of powder metallurgy are described so potential users can evaluate their worth in non-aerospace applications. This report discusses the various techniques by which powders can be produced, as pure metals or as alloys; it explains the methods by which these powders can be formed into the final parts, and further processing that may be necessary to meet the specific requirements spelled out by the user. The NASA developments are detailed, and references are provided for those who wish to obtain further information characteristic of any methodology. Compiled by experts associated with the Franklin Institute Research Laboratories, the document should be of value to manufacturing establishments, and to investigators in such areas as high strength, high temperature service, or the resistance of materials to cryogenic temperatures."--Foreword.
