Opis

Provides a state-of-the-art account of the various effects of impurities on the properties of engineering alloys. Outlines a wide range of methods for producing cleaner alloys. Traces the technological advances that allow the economical manufacture of purer materials.

Recenzje

". . .appropriate as a reference book for professionals working on superalloys and steels. In addition, people dealing with failure analysis, low- and high-temperature fracture, and stress- corrosion cracking may find the book quite useful."
---Journal of Metals
