The Association the compilation contains general appearing in the

of Powder Process Industry and Engineering, Japan, supervises of a monthly journal, Powder Science & Engineering, which articles relating to Powders and particulate matters. The articles journal are printed in Japanese with English titles, but there are many outstanding papers which may be of great interest to the readers of Advanced In this bulletin, the titles of the articles appearing in the journal, Powder Technology. Powder Science & Engineering, and other important information about the APPIE, will be introduced to the international readers of Advanced Powder Technology. The journal, Powder Science & Engineering, is published monthly by Funtaito Co. (4-10-35-402 Hiyoshihonmachi, Kohoku-ku, Yokohama 223-0062, Kogyosha

Japan).
