The unique and practical Materials Handbook (third
edition) provides quick and easy access to the physical and chemical
properties of very many classes of materials. Its coverage has been
expanded to include whole new families of materials such as minor
metals, ferroalloys, nuclear materials, food, natural oils, fats,
resins, and waxes. Many of the existing families - notably the metals,
gases, liquids, minerals, rocks, soils, polymers, and fuels - are
broadened and refined with new material and up-to-date information.
Several of the larger tables of data are expanded and new ones added.
Particular emphasis is placed on the properties of common industrial
materials in each class. After a chapter introducing some general
properties of materials, each of twenty classes of materials receives
attention in its own chapter. The health and safety issues connected
with the use and handling of industrial materials are included.
Detailed appendices provide additional information on subjects as
diverse as astronomical data, crystallography, spectroscopy,
thermochemical data, analytical chemistry, corrosion resistance, and
economic data for industrial and hazardous materials. Specific further
reading sections and a general bibliography round out this
comprehensive guide. The index and tabular format of the book makes
light work of extracting what the reader needs to know from the wealth
of factual information within these covers.
François
Cardarelli has spent many years compiling and editing materials data.
His professional expertise and experience combine to make this handbook
an indispensable reference tool for scientists, chemists, geologists and engineers working in
numerous fields ranging from chemical to nuclear engineering.
Particular emphasis is placed on the properties of common industrial
materials in each class. After a chapter introducing some general
properties of materials, materials are classified as follows:
