Abstract
Powder metallurgy is emerging day by day as a concrete solution to the new age scientific problem. Every
metal has its own characteristics and limitations. Powder metallurgy confluences the good characteristics of different
metals into one product, but requires a correct combination of various sub-processes associated with main process.
Powder metallurgy conquers the power of 4 P,s i.e. Precision as producing near net shape, Performance as fast and
consistent , Productivity as higher output and Price as low considering lesser secondary operation needed. Some
important mechanical properties of the different Ti-Nb alloys are analyzed in relation to the human implants. This paper
reviews different sub processes of powder metallurgy and their combination for the biomedical application of different
power metallurgy products. Papers also describe some advancement in manufacturing techniques and powder metallurgy
sub processes that enhance the behavior of materials for human implants.
