Description
The Concise Encyclopedia of The Chemical Properties of Materials presents a custom collection of articles from the award-winning
Encyclopedia of Materials Science and Technology (EMSAT), and includes updates and revisions not available in the original set.
The
chemical properties discussed in EMSAT which have selected for the present volume include production and refining processes (principally
for metallic materials, but also the processes of polymerization), the thermodynamics and kinetics of phase equilibria, electrochemical
reactions and gas-solid reactions. An important example of the latter process is oxidation and corrosion, and a majority of the articles
included are concerned with the kinetics, themodynamics and mechanisms of corrosion (including stress corrosion) in metallic systems.
Included are 114 articles discussing the chemical behaviour of a range of materials, with reference to metals and alloys, and polymers
and non-oxide ceramics. Featured articles include chemically modified wood and protection against corrosion.
Audience
Faculty and postgraduate research students in materials science and technology and related disciplines, especially physics, chemistry,
engineering and biomedical science; also researchers and staff in government and industry.
