Product Description
This book is a comprehensive guide to the compositions, properties, processing, performance, and applications of nickel, cobalt, and their alloys. It includes all of the essential information contained in the 20-volume ASM Handbook series, as well as new or updated coverage in the following areas:
- Expanded corrosion coverage including guidelines for selecting the best alloy for specific environments or applications
- Data sheets covering the compositions, specifications, applications, and properties for dozens of the most commercially important heat-, corrosion-, and wear-resistant nickel and cobalt alloys
- Recent advances in superalloy development, including coatings to extend high-temperature service life
- Unique characteristics of nickel and cobalt which allow them to be used in special-purpose applications, e.g., magnets, controlled-expansion devices, electronics, and implants for the human body
- Engineering applications for nickel and cobalt coatings produced by electroplating, electroforming, electroless coating, thermal spraying, and weld surfacing
