Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing a multiple composition component 10, comprising: arranging first, second and third constituent parts 40, 30, 42 having first, second and third compositions respectively A, B, C so that the first constituent part 40 shares a first boundary with the second constituent part 30 and the second constituent part 30 shares a second boundary with the third constituent part 40. The first, second and third constituent parts 40, 30, 42 are each either a powder or a solid so that the first and second boundaries are each a solid adjacent to a powder. The arrangement is then processed so as to form a single solid component having first, second and third regions 16, 18, 20 having first, second and third compositions A, B, C respectively.
