Review: This book covers virtually all the technical aspects of superalloys. It begins with a primer on superalloys for high temperatures and goes on to explain their structure–property relationship, how to protect them from corrosion, and how to select a superalloy, using available data. Nearly all operations in the processing of superalloys, from casting to machining, are included. The last chapter looks at the current state of superalloy applications and examines future directions, such as improvements in process modelling.
