Description

Many new processes which can exploit the weightless environment of space have been suggested as possibilities for making improved or unique materials. A large number of these will involve, at some stage, a containerless melt or transfer of molten material Some of the physics and technology problems associated with these processes are discussed. The range of applicability of some new electromagnetic process control methods is also presented.
