POWDER METALLURGY PROGRESS – international journal of powder technology and powder-derived materials.
POWDER METALLURGY PROGRESS is an international peer-reviewed open-access materials science journal with a more than 20 years long publishing history. Since the establishment in 2001, PMP published a wide variety of quality works, focused mainly on powder metallurgy of metals, the evolution of the technology itself, preparation, properties, and applications of particular materials.
In 2021 after the celebration of the 20th anniversary of the journal, it underwent changes and transformations focused mainly on the publishing interests and scope. Now it is extended to broadly all fields of powder-derived materials and technologies.
Works from the fields of powder metallurgy, metals, alloys, ceramics, and composites, basic and applied research of materials science related to mechanical and functional properties, manufacturing, and characterization are always welcomed.
