Materials Science and Technology A Comprehensive Treatment Edited by R.W. Cahn, P. Haasen, E.J. Kramer The 18-volume series ‘Materials Science and Technology' is the first in-depth, topic-oriented reference work devoted to this growing interdisciplinary field. A compendium of current, state-of-the-art information, it covers the most important classes of materials: metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semiconductors, and composites. Each volume deals with properties, processing, applications, or general phenomena associated with these materials. Edited by internationally renowned figures in materials science, this series is sure to establish itself as a seminal work. Volume 17A: Progress in the processing of ceramics has made these materials very important for current and future technologies. Internationally renowned exports have contributed to this, the first part of a two-part volume, which provides a wealth of information for materials scientists and engineers. Topics include: Microstructural Targets for Ceramics • Process Control in the Manufacture of Ceramics • Chemical Preparation of Powders • Characterization of Particles and Powders • Die Pressing and Isostatic Pressing • Slip-Casting and Filter-Pressing • Tape-Casting • Injection Molding • Single Crystals • Green Microstructures and Their Characterization
