Introduction to Phase Diagrams in Materials Science and Engineering – eBook

Phase diagrams are a MUST for materials engineers and scientists (MSEs). Though, understanding phase diagrams is a difficult task for most MSEs. The audience of this ebook are young MSEs who start learning phase diagrams and are expected to become specialists and those who were trained in fields other than materials science and engineering but are included in research and/or development of materials after they are employed.

Ternary phase diagrams presented in Chapter 4 are far more complicated than binary phase diagrams. For this reason, ternary phase diagrams are less and less taught these days. Though, in ceramics and semiconductors ternary phase diagrams become more and more significant. Latest software provides necessary information to handle ternary phase diagrams. However, no need to say, without basic knowledge of ternary phase diagrams it is impossible to comprehend ternary phase diagrams correctly. In Introduction to Phase Diagrams in Materials Science and Engineering, (PDF), ternary phase diagrams are shown in a completely original way, with many diagrams illustrated in full color.

In this ebook the essence of phase diagrams is presented in a user-friendly manner. This textbook is expected to be a Bible for MSEs.
