Magnesium-Based Nanocomposites (eBook, ePUB)

Advances and applications

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This reference text covers the most recent advances in the processing and properties of magnesium-based nanocomposites, a class of lightweight sustainable materials with the potential to be revolutionary energy-saving materials with a wide range of beneficial applications. Comprehensive coverage of the material properties is provided, including the tensile/compressive response, tribological characteristics, dynamic behaviour, the fatigue/creep response and biocompatibility, with emphasis on the effects of different types of nano-scale reinforcements.

This is the first book to cover the fundamental science and outcomes of the latest research on magnesium-based nanocomposites across multiple fields of research. It provides a complete picture of the materials, including their multi-faceted design and applications in technology, electronics, medicine, and the automotive and aerospace industries.

The text will enable researchers and engineers, irrespective of their discipline, to better exploit the benefits of magnesium-based nanocomposites for multiple applications that can contribute significantly to the safe health of humans and the planet. It also acts as a guide for tailoring materials for targeted applications, and is useful supplementary reading for advanced courses on composites and nanocomposites.
