Description

Metallurgy is the process of separation of metals from their ores. It is also an academic field which analyzes the properties of metallic elements, inter-metallic compounds and alloys. The extraction of metals requires the processing of ores through various processes. Accordingly, this field can be categorized into physical and chemical metallurgy. Depending on the materials produced, metallurgy branches into ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgy. Various techniques of plating, metalworking, thermal spraying, shot peening and heat treatment are crucial in metallurgy. This textbook provides comprehensive insights into the principles and processes in the field of metallurgy. It presents this complex subject in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. This book is an essential guide for both academicians and those who wish to pursue this discipline further.
