Features: This book includes six chapters. Mainly covers: fundamentals of material structure, composition and structure of materials, properties of materials, preparation and forming processing of materials, new materials and new properties. It introduces the interrelationships between the properties of metals, inorganic non-metallic materials, organic polymer materials, and material applications.
Characteristics: This textbook is a result of the research on personnel training and curriculum reform for 21st-century engineering material majors by the Ministry of Education, and is one of a series of textbooks for establishing a public course platform for materials science. It systematically introduces the fundamental theories of materials science and engineering, explaining the commonalities and individualities of various materials. Based on the scope of materials science, it starts from the structure of matter, material composition, and related theories, describing the basic properties of materials and the relationship between structure and properties, as well as research methods. Based on the scope of materials engineering, it starts from the application of materials, describing the principles, methods, and processing properties of materials. It features a new system and new content.
