Features: This textbook is developed based on the needs of teaching reform, emphasizing a solid foundation and broad knowledge. It starts from the main materials students may encounter after graduation and the increasingly important environmental issues, introducing the basic knowledge of common materials and their environmental behavior. The book is divided into three parts and sixteen chapters:
Part 1: "Structural Materials" focuses on the basic knowledge, properties, and application characteristics of metals and non-metallic materials from the perspective of material application. This part is the core content of the textbook.
Part 2: "Functional Materials" introduces the basic principles and characteristics of currently used functional materials.
Part 3: "Environmental Behavior of Materials" covers the environmental load, environmental performance, and basic concepts of environmental materials. The content of the three parts is both independent and interconnected, allowing for flexible selection during teaching.
This textbook can be used as a university undergraduate textbook for majors such as Mechanical Engineering and Automation, Energy and Power Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Engineering Mechanics, and Management Engineering, with a recommended teaching hours of 50-64. It is also suitable for engineering technicians in related fields for reference.
