Features: This "Newly Edited Handbook of Hardware Materials" has the following characteristics:
1. Focus on Practicality. The content of this book is selected based on the authors' 30+ years of practical experience and consulting cases, aiming to provide readers with the core information of common materials (such as specifications, composition, properties), presented in a clear and readable tabular format.
2. Striving for Up-to-Date Content. All the data listed in the book are sourced from the latest versions. Although the year designations of some adopted standards may appear old, they are still listed in the latest standard catalogs, indicating that the standards have not been revised and remain current.
3. Data with Sources. This handbook strives to provide sources for all data and information. For the adopted standards, the designations, numbers, and year designations are all included.
4. China became a formal member of the WTO in November 2001. The WTO's mission is based on its belief that an open global economic trade system is crucial for world economic development.
5. This revision includes newly revised national standards such as those for high-carbon steel and alloyed steel, and introduces the "Uniform Digital Code" of steel grades to readers, facilitating a gradual transition in steel management and contract signing for computerized management.
6. China has been producing hot-rolled silicon steel sheets since the 1950s, spanning half a century. Due to the fact that hot-rolled silicon steel sheets consume 2.5 times more energy than cold-rolled ones during use, they have been phased out in foreign countries.
