Introduction to Volume 2 This second volume contains 20 papers which were presented at the International Powder Metallurgy Conference held in New York, June 14-17, 1965. Whereas the first volume of these transactions deals with fundamentals and methods in powder metallurgy fabrication, this second volume deals with more practical aspects, especially recent applications and new developments. The largest part of today's powder metallurgy production concerns the fabrication of iron and iron-alloy parts. This type of production has increased steadily for many years, as shown in Volume 3 of these transactions, but there are many aspects of this technology which are stiU under development; reference is made especially to the sintering proces!>- of iron and steel compacts. Development in ferrous powder metallurgy is proceeding in many countries, and the authors of the six papers on ferrous powder metallurgy problems in this volume are from the United States, United Kingdom, U.S.S.R., and Sweden - four countries in which iron powder metallurgy is highly developed and in large-scale production. Powder metallurgy permits the fabrication of materials which are difficult or impossible to produce by more conventional metallurgica1 methods, and special reference is made to dispersion-strengthened materials, which are characterized by the dispersion of one component into the matrix of a second component. The first material of this type was developed more than 15 years ago in Switzerland, and it is known as SAP (sintered aluminum powder). This type of material has been further developed during the last few years, and this volume contains a review of the various efforts made at Euratom laboratories. The problems of dispersion-strengthening of other metals, such as nickel, cobalt, and tungsten, are also discussed in some detail in this volume. Dispersion-strengthened materials are most useful at elevated temperatures and are, therefore
