Mechanical Alloying of Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Alloys: Processing, Applications, and Properties provides an in-depth exploration of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys, including various methods of preparation and production, their mechanical properties, and applications. The advantages of the mechanical alloying processing approach over other traditional powder metallurgical techniques is explained as are the alloys that are best suited for this technique. Preparation steps, microstructures, properties, and applications for ferrous and non-ferrous alloys are compared, with insights on which alloys are best suited for preparation by alloying.

The advantages and disadvantages of wet and dry milling are outlined. Processing, properties, and applications of high entropy alloys, ODS stainless steel, shape memory alloys, cermets, iron, copper, zinc, tungsten, aluminum, titanium, magnesium, and ceramic-based alloys are also covered, as are different powder preparation techniques and sintering methods.
