Structural and Chemical Characterization of Metals, Alloys and Compounds

Edited by: Ramiro Pérez Campos, Antonio Contreras Cuevas and Rodrigo A. Esparza Muñoz

Online since: April 2013

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
This special volume of 24 peer reviewed contributions cover up-to-date research results on "Structural and Chemical Characterization of Metals Alloys and Compounds". The structural and chemical characterization of different materials such as metals, alloys, ceramics, steels, composites, polymeric compounds, welding, superalloys, intermetallic compounds, and nanomaterials are included. They were prepared with different techniques. Some important topics addressed were the analytical techniques focused on the microstructural, chemical, optical, electronic, magnetic and mechanical properties of materials.
