Description
Knowledge of the structures and properties of nonferrous metals, such as aluminum, is required knowledge for all materials scientists, chemists, and metallurgists. However, existing books often include this topic with their description of ferrous metals. Because ferrous metals (steel and cast iron) are by far the most widely used metals, coverage of nonferrous metals in these books is cursory or absent. For this reason there is a need for a book that deals with nonferrous metals.
Reviews / Votes
"...a text that is informative and useful for the practicing engineer, as well as interesting and instructional for the student of metallurgy." (Journal of Metals Online, January 24, 2006) "...well--written, illustrated, and presented...would be helpful to junior/senior--level undergraduates, graduate students, faculty, and practicing metallurgists. An excellent acquisition for academic or industrial libraries." (CHOICE, November 2005)More details
