Description
Book SynopsisThis edited monograph includes five chapters, each detailing recent advancements in materials science research. Chapter One discusses various processes to manufacture lithium alloys and salts as well as fabricated pebbles of lithium-based ceramics with desired properties for their use as tritium breeder materials. Chapter Two examines how the mechanical performance of glass fibre reinforced hybrid composites changes according to glass fibre type, glass fibre end form, other reinforcing non-fibrous or fibre-based materials and composite manufacturing method. Chapter Three describes studies concerning the properties of synthesised organometallics. Chapter Four investigates the correlation between the surface chemistry and the corrosion resistance of silanised samples of AZ91D magnesium alloy. Lastly, Chapter Five describes the control methods of brittle intermetallic compounds in the welding process of titanium and other alloys.
