Download or read book Euromat 99, Intermetallics and Superalloys written by D. G. Morris and published by Wiley-VCH. This book was released on 2000 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intermetallics are now close to the commercial application stage. TiAl-based alloys show good high-temperature specific stiffness and strength, while other intermetallics, such as the iron aluminides and silicide-based materials, are especially attractive due to their good corrosion or oxidation resistance. This book reviews activities that relate to improvements in processing methods and advances in the understanding of the property/microstructure relationship.
