Features: With the development of contemporary new materials and the increasing demand for traditional materials, the technology of material formation in material preparation engineering has become the foundation for realizing the application of high-performance materials. This book is a college-level teaching material for the discipline of materials science and engineering, specifically designed to meet the needs of teaching in this field. It is the first course to integrate the preparation science and technology of the three major material categories into a single curriculum. The entire book focuses on the technical principles, processes, and methods of material formation for the three major materials—metals, ceramics, and polymers—discussing material synthesis, material processing and shaping, material modification and surface processing, as well as material composites. It enables students to gain a broad foundation in material engineering while mastering the fundamental scientific principles and skills involved in material preparation processes. This allows them to propose solutions and methods for material preparation and processing based on the determined properties, structures, and application requirements of the materials.
