High Temperature Material Processes is an important international publication devoted to original and invited review papers on fundamental and applied re-search and new developments in materials processing and synthesis at high temperatures, especially under the plasma action as well as the treatment by laser, ion and electron beams. Processes of interest include (but not limited to) surface treatments, alloying, coatings production, nanostructures synthesis, welding, cutting, melting, re-melting and purification of metals, metallurgy (among them plasma metallurgy), powder densification, ultra-fine powder production, waste conversion and destruction. In addition, attention is paid to the development, description and study of experimental and industrial systems and devices for the implementation of high-technology plasma and beam processes. Thus, there is a broad range of coverage of experimental, analytical and numerical studies. High Temperature Material Processes will serve the needs of those who develop high temperature processes to produce materials with improved properties, surface treatments or coatings with given specifications, and will also promote connections between laboratories and industry.
