Composites Processing and Applications - Polymers, Ceramics, and Metals

Made from two chemically distinct materials?often some combinationof metal, ceramic, or polymer?composites form materials that arelighter and more durable than its original constituents. Tires, formica, bicycles, and air and spacecraft are made from composites.This textbook covers the science and engineering of compositematerials, detailing the processes, manufacturing, and applicationsof polymer matrix composites, metal matrix composites, and ceramicmatrix composites. Includes analytical models and equations, workedexamples, real-life applications, and case studies. Ideal forplastics engineers and upper level undergraduates in materialsscience and engineering

Riassunto

Made from two chemically distinct materials?often some combination of metal, ceramic, or polymer?composites form materials that are lighter and more durable than its original constituents. Tires, formica, bicycles, and air and spacecraft are made from composites.
