Engineering Materials

A comprehensive and highly practical introduction to the basic science of materials technology for all engineering students. Encompassing significant material systems—metals, ceramics, plastics, and composites, these exercises incorporate the most up-to-date information on material usage and availability, address the increasingly global nature of the field. Within the four major material categories, this edition includes specific coverage of metal buying, plastic families, survivor ceramics, and composite coatings. Other topics include surface engineering; tribology (friction, wear and lubrication); material properties; cemented carbides; steel making; heat treating; and corrosion—including a treatment of electrochemistry. Appropriate for all material engineers.
