Wiley, Inc, has published ‘Metallic Powders for Additive Manufacturing: Science and Applications’ by Dr Enrique J Lavernia, and Dr Julie M Schoenung. Both authors are professors in the Department of Materials Science & Engineering, and in the J Mike Walker ’66 Department of Mechanical Engineering, at Texas A&M University, USA.

Metallic Powders for Additive Manufacturing introduces the readers to the science and technology of atomised metal powders beyond empirical knowledge and the fundamental relationships among the chemistry, microstructure, and morphology of atomised metallic powders and their behaviour during Additive Manufacturing.

This technical reference aims to provide a foundational understanding of the science that controls the formation and microstructure of atomised metallic droplets. Additional chapters describe methods for characterising the chemical and physical properties of metallic powders, and the influence these characteristics have on the final additively manufactured parts. The economic and sustainability-related benefits and constraints of atomisation and AM, together with a vision for the future, are also provided.

“Given our active involvement in this field, we saw the need for a book dedicated to the exploration of metal powders within the framework of Additive Manufacturing,” Lavernia said.

The book is co-authored by Dr Kaka Ma, associate professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and School of Advanced Materials Discovery at Colorado State University; Dr James Shackleford, distinguished professor emeritus in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of California, Davis; and Dr Baolong Zheng, project scientist in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at the University of California, Irvine.

“We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate closely with our outstanding colleagues,” Lavernia shared. “We thoroughly enjoyed writing this book with them.”
