This invaluable reference provides a comprehensive overview of corrosion and environmental effects on metals, intermetallics, glossy metals, ceramics and composites of metals, and ceramics and polymer materials. It surveys numerous options for various applications involving environments and guidance in materials selection and substitution. Exploring a wide range of environments, including aqueous and high-temperature surroundings, Environmental Effects on Engineered Materials examines specific material-environmental interactions; corrosion rates and material limitations; preventive measurements against corrosion; utilization of older materials in recent applications; the use of new materials for existing equipment; and more.

Annotation. This second edition of a text on brazing includes revised material on tooling, design, materials, atmospheres, processing, and equipment. Several new topics are covered, including nanostructures and materials, microwave and laser brazing, more effective use of vacuum atmospheres, functionally gradient materials, and intermetallics. There is also more coverage of beryllium alloys, aluminum-lithium alloys, new titanium alloys, ceramic-to-metal brazing, composites, and ceramic-to-ceramic brazing. Case histories and problem-solving examples are included. Annotation (c)2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
