Principles of Metallography (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Understand how microstructure and cooling curves reveal the secrets of non‑ferrous alloys.

This practical guide shows how metallography and thermal analysis explain alloy behavior, solidification, and the structure you can see under the microscope. The book explains core ideas like cooling and freezing curves, simple and equilibrium diagrams, and how to interpret heat changes during solidification. It also covers the behavior of copper and its alloys, how mechanical work changes metal structure, and methods for revealing microstructure through etching.

• How cooling curves reflect the amount of material and the solidification process
• How to read equilibrium diagrams for aluminum–lead and copper–tin systems
• Practical notes on deoxidizing copper and the effects of mechanical work on metals
• Etching techniques to reveal crystal structure in copper alloys
