Engineering Plastics - $263.95

Engineering Plastics is designed and written for working engineers. The book opens with general design considerations.

The volume's Guide to Engineering Plastics Families offers generic articles describing 40 major engineering plastics families, 29 thermoplastics and 11 thermosets.

Content includes major commercially available resins, typical costs, major applications, competitive materials, significant characteristics, performance properties, design and processing considerations, and major suppliers.

The other sections move in to manufacturing processes considerations, such as function and properties requirements, size, shape and design detail considerations, and surface requirements.

Properties Considerations: Aggregate properties approach to design requirements; viscoelasticity; long-term environmental effects on properties; mechanical, thermal, electrical, and optical properties; properties modification by polymer/polymer mixtures and use of additives; and properties of thermoplastic structural foam.

Testing and Characterization for this unique class of materials is also discussed, including physical, mechanical, chemical, thermal and electrical testing and analysis.

Structural Analysis and Design covers the use of engineering formulas; important properties divergences; creep and relaxation; and impact and fatigue loading.

The Failure Analysis section discusses performance in service, such as Creep, stress relaxation, and yielding; brazing and fracture; fatigue failure; thermal stresses and physical aging; moisture and organic chemical related failure; photolytic and microbial degradation; surface analysis; and ultrasonic nondestructive analysis.

Adhesives and Sealants - $263.95

97 articles represent the efforts of more than 300 contributing authors and reviewers. The result is the most thorough review of the selection, design, properties, and uses of structural adhesives and sealants.

The broad range of technical information presented in this volume is divided into 10 major sections including: an overview of adhesives and sealants technology, a description of the major market and application areas, classification and comparison of various adhesives and sealants, surface preparation/considerations for adherents (metals, plastics, composites, and ceramics and glasses).

Methods used to test and analyze bonded structures; determination of mechanical properties (fatigue, fracture, etc.); physical characteristics (thermal and electrical); and microstructural analysis.

Designing with adhesives and sealants; the performance of adhesively bonded components in various service environments; manufacturing practices associated with adhesives and sealants (including curing and cure controls), and equipment used for mixing and dispensing, quality control, and repair recommendations are covered

Ceramics and Glasses - $263.95

Volume 4 provides exhaustive, yet practical information on processing, properties, testing and characterization, design, and applications of various types of ceramics and glasses. The coverage ranges from bricks to superconductors, windows to data transmission lines.

Ceramics and Glasses consists of 170 articles divided into 15 major sections that define and classify ceramic materials and provide introductory information on each class. Processing of ceramic materials, powder processing, forming methods, sintering, and final shaping (machining) are described.

Reliable methods of joining ceramics are also examined. Two sections that follow are devoted to the characterization tools available for studying ceramics and glasses. Processing-structure-property relationships are introduced.

The knowledge required to design structural elements and concepts of design methodology are addressed. Applications include: gas turbine engines, gasoline engines, and whisker-toughened ceramic components.

An extensive review of property data is contained. The articles in this section bring the users of property information up-to-date and direct them to sources of the most useful property data. The broad range of applications for ceramics and glasses are outlined in the volume's final four sections. Emphasis has been placed on the use of advanced materials for structural and electrical/electronic applications.
