Practice of Steelmaking 4

The current volume on the metallurgy of iron covers ingot casting, mold casting, and the powder metallurgy of steel. The expert authors reviewed an enormous amount of published information in these areas while adding their own extensive, not yet published practical experience. Discussions on the quality of ingots and semifinished products, on the detailed steps of various powder-metallurgical processes, and on special material and product properties extend the scope of Gmelin-Durrer series. The material presented in this volume is of interest to metallurgists in the steel industry, research institutes, and universities. The wide scope, moreover, makes this volume an invaluable source also for practitioners associated with supplying industries, engineering firms, and contractors.
