Item description from seller

Neuware - Understand the thermodynamics behind phase stability, chemical equilibrium, and materials processing.Why do some phases coexist while others transform What furnace atmosphere protects a metal from oxidation How do composition and temperature affect the stability of an alloy Handbook of Thermodynamics in Materials Science develops the principles needed to approach these questions. It connects thermodynamic laws, Gibbs energy, and chemical equilibrium with problems involving alloys, ceramics, semiconductors, polymers, and glasses.The book explains thermodynamic relations through their assumptions and applications, supported by worked numerical examples. Its sixteen chapters cover foundations, solution models, phase equilibria, reactions, electrochemistry, defects, interfaces, transformations, and transport.Inside, you will explore: - Binary and ternary phase diagrams, phase coexistence, and the lever rule.- Gibbs energy, activities, solution models, and CALPHAD methods for multicomponent equilibria.- Reaction equilibria, oxide stability, and furnace atmospheres.- Electrochemical potentials and potential-pH diagrams for assessing corrosion, immunity, and passivity.- Defect equilibria in ceramics and semiconductors, including their effects on ionic and electronic conductivity.- Thermodynamic driving forces, nucleation barriers, and spinodal decomposition.- Surface and interface effects, polymer and glass thermodynamics, diffusion, and entropy production.Worked examples, practice problems with answers, equation summaries, and reference data support study and practical consultation. SI units and explanations of the mathematical tools help readers follow the calculations.Written for advanced undergraduates, graduate students, and practicing engineers, this handbook provides a materials-focused treatment for readers working in metallurgy, ceramics, semiconductors, energy materials, and processing.Build a clearer understanding of how energy, composition, and temperature govern materials behavior.…
