A comprehensive reference on the properties, selection, processing, and applications of the most widely used nonmetallic engineering materials. Section 1, General Information and Data, contains information applicable both to polymers and to ceramics and glasses. It includes an illustrated glossary, a collection of engineering tables and data, and a guide to materials selection. Sections 2 through 7 focus on polymeric materials--plastics, elastomers, polymer-matrix composites, adhesives, and sealants--with the information largely updated and expanded from the first three volumes of the Engineered Materials Handbook. Ceramics and glasses are covered in Sections 8 through 12, also with updated and expanded information. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Release: 2004
Genre: Reference
ISBN: 9781569903582

This comprehensive reference, based on information extracted from Modern Machine Shop's Handbook for the Metalworking Industries, contains almost 400 large, easy-to-read pages of text, tables, and diagrams that provide the properties and characteristics of a broad range of both metallic and nonmetallic materials, complete with detailed descriptions of heat treatment procedures and testing methods. In addition to covering conventional metals such as steel, aluminum, and copper, extensive data on plastics, fiber reinforced composites, specialized magnesium and titanium alloys, and heat-resistant 'superalloys' are included. Every effort has been made to present current, useful, and practical knowledge that an engineer, designer, or machinist traditionally consults in order to predict a material's suitability for a particular application.
