Review: This ASM Speciality handbook devoted to the engineering aspects of copper and copper alloys. Copper easily combines with other metals to form alloys. Tin and zinc have always been the main alloying metals, but many others such as aluminium, nickel, beryllium, chromium, manganese etc. form alloys with unique mechanical and physical properties and excellent corrosion and wear resistance. This handbook is divided into four sections: metallurgy and applications of wrought, cast, and powder metallurgy alloys; fabrication and finishing procedures; metallography, microstructures and phase diagrams; and engineering properties and service characteristics.
