Short Description
These two volumes provide a comprehensive source for scientists and engineers interested in intermetallics. Experts from 15 countries cover fundamental theory, experimental aspects, practical applications (both current and potential) and critical assessment. Volume one is devoted to the science of intermetallic compounds - their formation, structure, bonding and properties. Volume two deals with the applications of intermetallic compounds, from initial uses, present commercial and future applications.
