Abstract

The chapter delves into the synthesis of metallic materials by the arc melting technique, a widely used method for preparing metallic alloys, intermetallic compounds, and composites. It covers the physical principles behind arc generation, the advantages of arc melting over other methods, and its applications in various industries. The text also discusses the limitations of the technique and provides examples of alloy preparation using laboratory arc melting furnaces. Additionally, it explores the use of arc melting in industrial settings, including steel-making and the preparation of high-purity alloys for nuclear fuels.
