| Summary |
Annotation. Reviews the engineering aspects of copper and copper alloys. Divided into four sections, the book presents the metallurgy and applications of wrought, cast, and powder alloys; fabrication and finishing procedures; metallography, microstructures, and phase diagrams; and engineering properties and service characteristics. Topics of the 33 articles include heat treatment, copper as a coating, forging and extrusion, welding, micrographs that illustrate the effects of processing, corrosion behavior, fatigue properties, mechanical properties, and electrical conductivity.
