Copper Alloys: Processes, Applications and Developments (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781632380982)

Copper has been used for various purposes through the ages. It is utilized excessively in handicrafts and other industries due to its easy to cast, highly ductile and non-corrosive properties. The simple FCC structure of copper makes it an ideal element for studying deformation mechanism in metals. The bulk consumption of copper in the industrial sector has led to the development of high performance and highly efficient copper alloys. This book provides an introduction to classification and casting, and also elucidates latest methods and techniques utilized to process copper alloys. It also focuses on the application of archaeometallurgical techniques to study ancient copper alloys. This book will be beneficial for students, engineers, scientists and professionals interested in learning more about copper alloys.
