    • English
    Iron Oxide-Based Nanomaterials: From Fundamentals to Emerging Applications provides a detailed description of iron oxide nanomaterials, their synthesis, and characterization, while also exploring a wide range of applications of iron oxide nanocomposites and nanomaterials in different fields, including energy, sensing, environmental remediation, biomedical, and enzymes. The book provides all the necessary basic information about iron-oxide-based nanomaterials, including structural aspects, synthesis-to-structu... relationships, and applications of these materials in various areas. It also explains the different synthesis parameters that control the surface morphology, crystallinity, and activity of iron oxides desirable for different applications. Starting with an initial section on fundamentals, the book then focuses the following three sections on the key application area of these particles: energy, biomedicine, and the environment.

  • Mechanical Alloying of Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Alloys

    Processing, Properties, and Applications
    • 1st Edition
    • June 19, 2024
    • Shashanka Rajendrachari
    • English
    Mechanical Alloying of Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Alloys: Processing, Applications, and Properties provides an in-depth exploration of ferrous and non-ferrous alloys, including various methods of preparation and production, their mechanical properties, and applications. The advantages of the mechanical alloying processing approach over other traditional powder metallurgical techniques is explained as are the alloys that are best suited for this technique. Preparation steps, microstructures, properties, and applications for ferrous and non-ferrous alloys are compared, with insights on which alloys are best suited for preparation by alloying.The advantages and disadvantages of wet and dry milling are outlined. Processing, properties, and applications of high entropy alloys, ODS stainless steel, shape memory alloys, cermets, iron, copper, zinc, tungsten, aluminum, titanium, magnesium, and ceramic-based alloys are also covered, as are different powder preparation techniques and sintering methods.

  • Handbook of Ferroalloys

    Theory and Technology
    • 1st Edition
    • May 4, 2013
    • Michael Gasik
    • English
    This handbook gathers, reviews and concisely presents the core principles and varied technology involved in processing ferroalloys. Background content in thermodynamics, kinetics, heat and mass transfer is accompanied by an overview of electrical furnaces theory and practice as well as sustainability issues. The work includes detailed coverage of the major technologies of ferrosilicon, ferronickel, ferromolybdenum, ferrotungsten, ferrovanadium, ferromanganese and lesser known minor ferroalloys. Distilling the results of many years' experience in ferroalloys, Michael Gasik has assembled contributions from the worlds' foremost experts. The work is therefore a unique source for scientists, engineers and university students, exploring in depth an area which is one of the most versatile and increasingly used fields within modern metallurgy.

  • Foseco Non-Ferrous Foundryman's Handbook

    • 1st Edition
    • September 17, 1999
    • John Brown
    • English
    The Non-Ferrous Foundryman's Handbook provides a practical reference book for all those concerned with dealing with aluminium, copper and magnesium casting alloys.International SI units are used throughout, but in almost all cases conversions to the more familiar Metric and Imperial units are given. Wherever possible, Casting Alloy Specifications include equivalent specifications for several countries as well as international specifications. Individual chapters cover the casting of all types of non-ferrous metals. For each group of alloys, specifications, and typical applications are described, together with details of melting practice, metal treatment and casting practice. Sand moulding materials, including green sand and chemically bonded sands are also included. Recently there have been many major technical developments including new sand binders, the adoption of metal filtration of castings and widespread use of computers for the optimisation of feeder design.

  • Weldability of Ferritic Steels

    • 1st Edition
    • May 31, 1994
    • Norman Bailey
    • English
    This book is chiefly concerned with the conventional fusion welding processes and their problems and will be of value to practical welding engineers, inspectors and metallurgists. The author also has inmind the needs of those concerned with design and specification, recognising the importance of dealing with problems at the design stage.
