Infrared Process Heating Handbook for Industrial Applications (First Edition)
	The membership of the Infrared Equipment Division (IRED) of the Industrial Heating Equipment Association (IHEA) is proud to present this first edition handbook as a quick introduction to the many applications of infrared heating in industrial processes today. Infrared (IR) process heating was first developed in the 1930s for curing the paint on automobile bodies. Since then, IR heating has been successfully applied to hundreds of different process heating applications, such as curing metal finishes and protective coatings; fusing thermo set and thermoplastic powder coatings; forming molded plastics; bonding adhesives and metals; drying papers, inks, and fabrics; and processing foods.

This is the first in-depth, topic-oriented reference work devoted to this growing interdisciplinary field. A compendium of current, state-of-the-art information, it covers the most important classes of materials: metals, ceramics, glasses, polymers, semi-conductors, and composites. Each volume deals with properties, processing, applications, or general phenomena associated with these materials. Edited by internationally renowned experts in materials science, this series is sure to establish itself as a seminal work.

Metallurgy Fundamentals

Daniel A. Brandt and J. C. Warner; Goodheart-Willcox Company, Inc.; September 1999
Metallurgy Fundamentals provides instruction and information on the basic principles of metallurgy. It explores the reasons for the strange ways that metals behave when they are heated and cooled. It explains why the strength and hardness of metal changes after being heated and cooled in certain ways. A knowledge of these principles and characteristics is invaluable to any person who plans to deal with metals as a future vocation.

Handbook: Heat Treating

ASM International; June 1991
With volume 4, the former Metals handbook has become the ASM handbook (as the American Society for Metals has become ASM International), so the present prodigious volume is in actuality the 10th edition of the classic reference. Volume 4 has been organized into eight major sections: heat treating of steel, surface hardening of steel, heat-treating equipment, process and quality control considerations, heat treating of cast irons, heat treating of tool steels, heat treating of stainless steels and heat-resistant alloys, and heat treatment of nonferrous alloys. A total of 71 articles are contained in these sections--16 new, 17 completely rewritten, and the remainder revised and/or expanded. Appendices include a glossary of terms, a temper color chart for steels, and tabulated austenitizing temperature for steels.

Carbon and Alloy Steels: ASM Specialty Handbook

Joseph R. Davis; ASM International; February 1996
Following a general introduction, which reviews steelmaking practices as well as the classification, general properties, and applications of steel, this volume contains four major sections that describe processing characteristics, service characteristics, corrosion behavior, and material requirements for specific applications. In each section, emphasis is on the relationships between microstructure and properties and the influence of modern steelmaking practices on the performance of steels. Intended as a complement to volume 1 of the handbook series, this fourth volume completes the series' treatment of steels.

Analysis of Metallurgical Failures

Vito J. Colangelo, F. A. Heiser With Francis A. Heiser; Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated; January 1987
This reference guide or undergraduate text shows how to determine, by analyzing metallurgical failures, the validity of a product design. This revision of a successful work features new techniques in electron microscopy, testing fracture toughness, and fracture mechanics. Describes destructive and nondestructive techniques regarding their advantages, limitations, applications, and meaning. Written to be understood by all engineers concerned about component failure this edition approaches typical problem areas from a physical and mechanical viewpoint. Describes the relationship between the practical and the theoretical, so that failure analyses can best be resolved and failure recurrence prevented. Maintains English and SI units throughout.

Atlas of Time-Temperature Diagrams for Irons and Steels

G. F. VanderVoort; ASM International; January 1991
Between this volume and its companion, Atlas of Time Temperature Diagrams for Nonferrous Alloys, you'll find the most comprehensive collection of time-temperature diagrams ever collected. Containing both commonly used curves and out-of-print and difficult-to-find data, these Atlases represent an outstanding worldwide effort, with contributions from experts in 14 countries. Time-temperature diagrams show how metals respond to heating and cooling, allowing you to predict the behavior and know beforehand the sequence of heating and cooling steps to develop the desired properties, a valuable resource for any materials engineer.

Sintering Theory and Practice

Randall M. German; Wiley, John & Sons, Incorporated; January 1996
Although sintering is an essential process in the manufacture of ceramics and certain metals, as well as several other industrial operations, until now, no single book has treated both the background theory and the practical application of this complex and often delicate procedure. In Sintering Theory and Practice, leading researcher and materials engineer Randall M. German presents a comprehensive treatment of this subject that will be of great use to manufacturers and scientists alike. This practical guide to sintering considers the fact that while the bonding process improves strength and other engineering properties of the compacted material, inappropriate methods of control may lead to cracking, distortion, and other defects. It provides a working knowledge of sintering, and shows how to avoid problems while accounting for variables such as particle size, maximum temperature, time at that temperature, and other problems that may cause changes in processing. The book describes the fundamental atomic events that govern the transformation from particles to solid, covers all forms of the sintering process, and provides a summary of many actual production cycles. Building from the ground up, it begins with definitions and progresses to measurement techniques, easing the transition, especially for students, into advanced topics such as single-phase solid-state sintering, microstructure changes, the complications of mixed particles, and pressure-assisted sintering.
