大千世界中,材料无处不在。吃、穿、住、行,每个人每天都会碰到诸如金属、橡胶、磁性、光电等众多材料,小到一根针、一张纸、一个塑料袋、一件衣服,大到交通工具、医疗器械、工程建筑、信息通讯、航天航空,处处都有材料科学与工程的身影。 材料科学与工程以材料学、化学、物理学为基础,主要研究材料成分、结构、加工工艺与其性能和应用。人类文明的发展史事实上就是一部如何更好地利用材料和创造材料的历史,材料的不断创新和发展,反过来又极大地推动了社会经济的发展。 材料科学与工程囊括了金属材料工程、无机非金属材料工程、高分子材料与工程、复合材料与工程等。随着人类进入新世纪以及科学技术的不断发展,无论是工业领域、建筑领域、医疗领域还是航空领域,材料学都面临着技术突破和重大产业发展机遇。以高分子材料、纳米材料、光电子材料、生物医用材料及新能源材料等为代表的新材料技术创新也显得非常活跃。很多日用化工类、机械加工类、石油化工、钢铁制造类企业都离不开材料及相关工程方面的人才,如材料及高分子复合材料成型加工、高分子合成、化学纤维、新型建筑装饰材料、现代喷涂与包装材料、陶瓷、水泥、家用电器、电子电气、汽车厂、钢铁企业、石油化工、制造企业、航天航空等企业中从事设计、新产品开发、生产管理、市场经营及贸易部门工作的人员,高等学校、科研单位从事材料科学研究与教学工作的学者和研究人员,政府部门从事行政管理、质量监督等工作的行政人员等,都也离不开材料及相关工程方面的知识和技能。 按照材料的种类,本书共涉及七种材料:金属材料、陶瓷材料、水泥混凝土材料、高分子材料、复合材料、半导体材料、能源材料,分别介绍各种材料的基本结构特征、性能、用途、合成制造、加工方法和相关实验操作。本书在注重材料科学基础理论的同时,兼顾材料工程生产实践,注重理论与生产生活实践相结合,提高读者的阅读兴趣。 由于作者水平有限,疏漏和不足之处在所难免,敬请读者指正。 作者 2017年5月 Materials Science and Engineering encompasses all natural and man-made materials——their extraction, synthesis, processing, properties, characterization, and development for technological applications. Advanced engineering activities that depend upon optimized materials include the medical device and healthcare industries, the energy industries, electronics and photonics, transportation, advanced batteries and fuel cells, and nanotechnology. Professionals in materials science and engineering develop a fundamental understanding of materials at the nano, micro and macro scales, leading to specialization in such topics as: biomaterials; chemical and electrochemical materials science and engineering; computational materials science and engineering; electronic, magnetic and optical materials; and structural materials. As in the past, today’s materials advancements enables new technological breakthroughs across all engineering disciplines. Structural Materials focus on the relationships between the chemical and physical structure of materials and their properties and performance. Regardless of the material class metallic, ceramic, polymeric or composite, an understanding of the structure-property relationships provides a scientific basis for developing engineering materials for advanced applications. Fundamental and applied research in structural materials responds to an ever-increasing demand for improved or better-characterized materials. This book treats the important properties of seven primary types of materials——metals, ceramics, concrete, polymers, composite materials, semiconductors, as well as energy. Describes the relationships that exist between the structural elements of these materials and their characteristies. Emphasizes mechanical behavior and failure along with techniques used to improve the mechanical and failure properties in terms of alteration of structural elements. Individual chapters discuss each of the corrosion, electrical, thermal, magnetic, and optical properties plus economic, environmental, and societal issues. Features a design component which includes design examples, case studies, and design typ
