Materials Science - Alloys

$ 155

Steels and high entropy alloys are important materials in metallurgy and materials science. Steels are iron-based alloys with carbon and other elements, known for their strength, durability and versatility in construction, manufacturing and automotive industries. High Entropy Alloys (HEAs) on the other hand, are a newer class of materials composed of five or more principal elements in near-equal proportions. This unique composition leads to a high degree of mixing entropy, resulting in exceptional mechanical properties like strength, toughness and resistance to wear and corrosion. HEAs are studied for advanced applications where traditional alloys may fail. Both steels and HEAs are critical in advancing materials technology, providing solutions for demanding engineering challenges through improved performance and innovative design. This book unfolds the innovative aspects of metallurgy and materials science which will be crucial for the progress of this field in the future. The ever growing need of advanced technology is the reason that has fueled the research in the field of alloys in recent times. With state-of-the-art inputs by acclaimed experts of this field, this book targets students and professionals.
