Corrosion of Aluminium
Authors: Christian Vargel.
Hardcover, 700 pages
Publisher: Elsevier Science
Publication Date: 2004-12-30
Edition: illustrated edition

Reviews :

    This book highlights the practical and general aspects of the corrosion of aluminium alloys with many illustrations and references. In addition to that, the first chapter allows the reader who is not very familiar with aluminium to understand the metallurgical, chemical and physical features of the aluminium alloys.

The author Christian Vargel, has adopted a practitioner approach, based on the expertise and experience gained from a 40 year career in aluminium corrosion This approach is most suitable for assessing the corrosion resistance of aluminium- an assessment which is one of the main conditions for the development of many uses of aluminium in transport, construction, power transmission etc.

* 600 bibliographic references provide a comprehensive guide to over 100 years of related study
* Providing practical applications to the reader across many industries
* Accessible to both the beginner and the expert...

New Speed Limit for Submarine Ocean Ridge Volcanism
The time it takes for rock to form in volcanic mid-ocean ridges is a lot shorter than previously thought. A study reported by Univ. of Hawaii Prof. Ken Rubin and colleagues in the 22 Sept issue of the Journal Nature reports that it could take just a few decades, 10 to 100 times shorter than previous estimates. 70 per cent of Earth's volcanism occurs at mid-ocean ridges, which support a vibrant biosphere far removed from the sun. These fast rates make the chemical and biological co

Production of Aluminum and Alumina (Critical Reports on Applied Chemistry, Vol 20)
Authors:
Hardcover, 254 pages
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons Inc
Publication Date: 1987-10


Reviews :

    Aluminium is the most abundant metallic element on the surface of the earth, although never found free in nature. Its many desirable physical, chemical and metallurgical properties make it the most widely used non-ferrous metal. A comprehensive overview of aluminium extractive metallurgy is provided. Theoretical background information is coupled with practical observation in the belief that more efficient operation can be achieved with a better understanding of the process. The contents cover the Bayer Process and its various stages, the problems of carbothermic reduction of aluminia and the Hall- Heroult process. In these well established areas, research could vastly improve the efficiency of the process and allow the rare metals left in the residues of refining bauxite to be exploited more fully. This is another area discussed....

Practical Heat Treating (06518G)
Authors: Howard E. Boyer.
Hardcover, 243 pages
Publisher: ASM International
Publication Date: 1984-04


Reviews :

    This book describes heat treating technology in clear, concise, and nontheoretical language. It is an excellent introduction and guide for design and manufacturing engineers, technicians, students, and others who need to understand why heat treatment is specified and how different processes are used to obtain desired properties.

The new Second Edition has been extensively updated and revised by Jon L. Dossett, who has more than forty years of experience in heat treating operations and management. The update adds important information about new processes and process control techniques that have been developed or refined in recent years. Helpful appendices have been added on decarburiztion of steels, boost/diffuse cycles for carburizing, and process verification....
