It teaches students the key principles involved in the processing of engineering materials, specifically metals, ceramics, and polymers, from the starting or raw materials through to the final functional forms. Its self-contained approach is based on the state of matter most central to the shaping of the material: melt, solid, powder, dispersion and solution, and vapor"-- Back cover ER -
