Structure and Properties of Non-Ferrous Metals

Summary

Classification of nonferrous metals. Physical and mechanical properties of metals and alloys. Influence of impurities and alloying elements on basic properties of metals and their alloys, mechanisms of interactions and possibility of their employment to modify metals and alloys properties. Phase diagrams, phase transformations, heat treatment, stability and metastability of phases applied on the selected advanced alloys.
