Metallic Powders for Additive Manufacturing 1st Edition

Capture the future of metal 3D printing with Metallic Powders for Additive Manufacturing, 1st Edition — a definitive resource edited by Enrique J. Lavernia, Kaka Ma, Julie M. Schoenung, James F. Shackelford, and Baolong Zheng. This authoritative volume immediately draws you in with clear explanations of why powder characteristics matter to part performance across industries.

Inside, readers find in-depth, practical coverage of powder production methods, particle morphology, size distribution, flowability, packing behavior, and contamination control—linking microstructure to mechanical properties and process outcomes. Case studies span powder bed fusion, directed energy deposition, and binder jetting, while chapters on powder handling, recycling strategies, and safety reflect real-world manufacturing needs in North America, Europe, and Asia.

Engineers, researchers, materials scientists, and industry leaders will value the book’s blend of fundamentals and applied guidance: instrumentation and characterization techniques (SEM, XRD, laser diffraction), quality assurance protocols, and optimization strategies that reduce defects and improve repeatability. Whether you’re developing aerospace components, medical implants, or tooling, the insights here translate to better designs, lower costs, and faster qualification cycles.

Clear, well-organized, and rigorously edited, this edition is an essential reference for anyone working with metal powders in additive manufacturing. Elevate your projects with trusted expertise — add Metallic Powders for Additive Manufacturing, 1st Edition to your professional library today and stay at the leading edge of metal 3D printing innovation.
