The technical sessions are forums to review original and unpublished work addressing recent advances in the full spectrum of powder metallurgy & particulate materials technologies and publicize recent work contributing to the state of the art and/or discussing emerging areas of interest. All submissions should clearly outline the results of the latest research, innovations, or improvements in PM processing or products.

All accepted abstracts will require a manuscript submitted to MPIF prior to presentation at the conference. See the Speaker Guide for more information on the manuscript requirements.
