Metallurgy is a branch of science and engineering that deals with the study of metals, their properties, extraction, refining, and the processes involved in their production and use. It encompasses various techniques and methods used to manipulate and transform metallic materials to obtain desired properties and shapes. Metallurgy involves understanding the structure and behavior of metals at the atomic and molecular level, as well as the effects of various processing techniques on their microstructure and properties. It encompasses a wide range of activities, including mining and extraction of ores, refining and purification of metals, alloying, casting, shaping, heat treatment, surface treatment, and testing and evaluation of metal properties. Metallurgists apply their knowledge and expertise to develop new alloys with improved properties, optimize manufacturing processes for efficient production, and ensure the quality and reliability of metal products. They work in industries such ...
