Description
This work discusses techniques for developing new engineering materials such as elastomers, plastic blends, composites, ceramics and high-temperature alloys. Instrumentation for evaluating their properties and identifying potential end uses are presented.;The book is intended for materials, manufacturing, mechanical, chemical and metallurgical engineers; ceramists; product development specialists; materials scientists; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
Reviews / Votes
". . .a considerable achievement. . .will be of great value to those in the chemical community who have to tackle the varied, real-life problems of materials science and want to obtain an over- view of the techniques available. Every library should have a copy. "---Journal of the American Chemical Society
". . .should serve as a compendium to which the user can turn for quick and reliable answers arising in the course of his or her work and should prove a valuable resource. "
---Silicates Industriels (Journal of the Belgian Ceramic Society)
