Handbook of Non-Ferrous Metal Powders

The manufacture and use of the powders of non-ferrous metals has been taking place for many years in what was previously Soviet Russia, and a huge amount of knowledge and experience has built up in that country over the last forty years or so. Although accounts of the topic have been published in the Russian language, no English language account has existed until now.Six prominent academics and industrialists from the Ukraine and Russia have produced this highly-detailed account which covers the classification, manufacturing methods, treatment and properties of the non-ferrous metals ( aluminium, titanium, magnesium, copper, nickel, cobalt, zinc, cadmium, lead, tin, bismuth, noble metals and earth metals).The result is a formidable reference source for those in all aspects of the metal powder industry.- Covers the manufacturing methods, properties and importance of the following metals: aluminium, titanium, magnesium, copper, nickel, cobalt, zinc, cadmium, noble metals, rare earth metals, lead, tin and bismuth
- Expert Russian team of authors, all very experienced
- English translation and update of book previously published in Russian

Oleg Domianovich Neikov holds a doctorate in material science at the Institute for Problems in Materials Science of National Academy of Science of Ukraine (IPMS), Kiev, Ukraine. Since 1970, he has been worked at the IPMS where he was promoted from research assistant to the head of the department of metallic powder synthesis and processing. During 40 years, Neikov was a member of the editorial boards of Powder Metallurgy and Metal Ceramics Journal. Dr. Neikov is author of more than 350 scientific publications, more than 40 patented investigations, and 8 monographs, including 'Air suction and dedusting in production of powders. Moscow (Russia): Metallurgia; 1981, Handbook of non-ferrous metal powders. Moscow: Metallurgia; 1997 [in Russian], Handbook of non-ferrous metal powders. 1st ed. Elsevier; 2009. His professional main field is the powder metallurgy of reactive metals (powder obtaining and processing; phiysics of flammability and explosion of metal powders); the current research interests are the rapid solidification processes, melt atomization and surface chemistry and physics.Nikolay Aleksandrovich Yefimov holds the Ph.D. degree in Institute for Problems in Materials Science of National Academy of Science of Ukraine (IPMS), Kiev, Ukraine in 2000. Since 2015, he has been working as a leading researcher in IPMS. Nikolay Yefimov graduated from the Kiev Polytechnic Institute in 1992 with a specialization in "physics of metals". Nikolay Yefimov is author of more than 120 scientific publication, including monograph Quasicrystals and nano-quasicrystals are new promising materials. In: Promising materials, Vitebsk, Belarus, 2009.Naboychenko Stanislav Stepanovich is Corresponding Member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Professor, and Doctor of Technical Sciences. Naboychenko S.S. is a member of the editorial boards of the leading Russian metallurgical journals "Non-Ferrous Metals", "Russian Journal of Non-Ferrous Metals". He is an expert in the field of hydrometallurgical processes; he devoted a large number of works to autoclave processes, the author of more than 450 scientific papers. Stanislav Stepanovich Naboichenko is a recognized scientist in the field of autoclave hydrometallurgy of non-ferrous metals, the author of a well known in Russia and abroad study dedicated to kinetics of dissolution of copper sulfides, non-ferrous alloys, hydrogen precipitation of copper, antimony, bismuth powders and the synthesis of a number of their compounds. He proposed a number of advanced technologies for processing copper-zinc concentrates and industrial products of copper secondary raw materials.
