Abstract:
About the Book: The book has been designed to cover all relevant topics in B.E. (Mechanical/Metallurgy/Material Science/Production Engineering), M. Sc. (Material Science), B. Sc. (Honours), M. Sc. (Physics), M. Sc. (Chemistry), AMIE and Diploma students. Students appearing for GATE, UPSC, NET, SLET and other entrance examinations will also find book quite useful. In Nineteen Chapters, the book deals with atomic structure, the structure of solids; crystal defects; chemical bonding; diffusion in solids; mechanical properties and tests of materials; alloys, phase diagrams and phase transformations; heat treatment; deformation of materials; oxidation and corrosion; electric, magnetic, thermal and optical properties; semiconductors; superconductivity; organic materials; composites; and nanostructured materials. Special features: Fundamental principles and applications are discussed with explanatory diagrams in a clear way. A full coverage of background topics with latest development is provided. Special chapters on Nanostructured materials, Superconductivity, Semiconductors, Polymers, Composites, Organic materials are given . Solved problems, review questions, problems, short-question answers and typical objective type questions along with suggested readings are given with each chapter.
