Reviews
@qu:For finishing of aluminium other than anodising, hitherto no text books are available. This book describes the surface treatments and finishes available for alminium. The subject has been treated in detail in fourteen chapters... This book will be a highly useful one for all the persons working in alminium finishing. @source:Bulletin of Electrochemistry.
