Synopsis

Written both for the novice and for the experienced scientist, this miniature encyclopedia concisely describes over one hundred materials methodologies, including evaluation, chemical analysis, and physical testing techniques. Each technique is presented in terms of its use, sample requirements, and the engineering principles behind its methodology. Real life industrial and academic applications are also described to give the reader an understanding of the significance and utilization of technique. There is also a discussion of the limitations of each technique. Highlights of the book are comprehensive coverage of polymer analysis, testing, and evaluation, and descriptions of state-of-the-art technology in surface analysis and microscopy along with lucid illustrations and examples. Among the contributors are John P. Sibilia, R. Donald Sedgwick, Edith A. Turi, Annemarie Reimschuessel, and N. Sanjeeva Murthy.
