Hot stamping of porous billets (GSPZ) is considered. Structural steels obtained with the use of GSPZ technology are significantly inferior in terms of machinability by cutting similar in chemical composition to cast and hot-rolled steels. Various alloying elements are considered to improve the machinability of structural powder steels by cutting and their effect on physical and mechanical properties.

The effect of two surface-active substances (SAS) - polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyacrilamide (PAA) on formation kinetics of anodic synthesized electrolytes for copper powders production was reviewed, as well as product properties. It was found that the copper powder properties defined by polymer film of PVP and PAA formed on cathode surface. Nanosized particles percentage increasing by dints of copper ions direct discharge from ammonia complex ions provided by polymer film. In the electrolyte containing PAA is possible to obtain copper powder with nanosized (less 100 nm) particles content of 50,2%, average size in nanosized range is 43nm with needle-dendrite particle shape
