Summary

Powder metallurgy represents an advanced technology for production of structural and functional materials, which cannot be made by classical procedures. Powder metallurgy is used among others at production of a broad range of materials for electrical engineering (contact materials, materials difficult to fuse, magnetic materials, etc.).
