This practical introduction to engineering materials/metallurgy maintains a low mathematical level designed for two-year technical programs and four year engineering technology. The easy-to-read, highly accessible Fifth Edition now includes many of the latest industry processes that change the physical and mechanical properties of materials and is highly recommended as a “materials processing” reference handbook in support of Design, Process, Electrical and Chemical technicians and engineers. Math theory is minimized and the appreciation of theory is emphasized.

Practical Metallurgy and Materials of Industry, Sixth Edition, provides a practical introduction to engineering materials /metallurgy. It includes many of the latest industry processes that change the physical and mechanical properties of materials. Numerous illustrations and photo micrographs are provided to support and enhance the material presented in the text.

Other features of this classic text on metals and other modern materials include:

• review questions and case problems at the end of each chapter
• 8 pages of color illustrations of heat treatment, mechanical testing, metallography, fractography, failure analysis, and corrosion
• information on sample preparation for testing
