Cover photo: The scanning electron microscope (SEM) is a
powerful tool for inspecting materials in order to better
understand their
performance in engineering designs. In this SEM image of a
carbon fiber-reinforced ceramic brake disc, the silicon carbide
matrix is shown
in yellow and carbon fibers in blue. This composite material
provides features of both materials––the hardness and abrasion
resistance of
silicon carbide with the stress absorbing character of the
embedded carbon fibers. The ceramic composite can last four
times longer than a
conventional steel brake disc.

This book is designed for a first course in engineering
materials. The field that
covers this area of the engineering profession has come to be
known as “materi-
als science and engineering.” To me, this label serves two
important functions.
First, it is an accurate description of the balance between
scientific principles
and practical engineering that is required in selecting the proper
materials for
modern technology. Second, it gives us a guide to organizing
this book. After a
short introductory chapter, “science” serves as a label for Part I
on “The Fun-
damentals.” Chapters 2 through 10 cover various topics in
applied physics and
chemistry. These are the foundation for understanding the
principles of “mate-
rials science.” I assume that some students take this course at
the freshman or
sophomore level and may not yet have taken their required
coursework in chem-
istry and physics. As a result, Part I is intended to be self-
contained. A previous
course in chemistry or physics is certainly helpful, but should
not be necessary.
If an entire class has finished freshman chemistry, Chapter 2
(atomic bonding)
could be left as optional reading, but it is important not to
overlook the role of
bonding in defining the fundamental types of engineering
materials. The remain-
ing chapters in Part I are less optional, as they describe the key
topics of materials
science. Chapter 3 outlines the ideal, crystalline structures of
important materi-
als. Chapter 4 introduces the structural imperfections found in
real, engineering
materials. These structural defects are the bases of solid- state
diffusion (Chap-
ter 5) and plastic deformation in metals (Chapter 6). Chapter 6
also includes a
broad range of mechanical behavior for various engineering
materials. Similarly,
Chapter 7 covers the thermal behavior of these materials.
Subjecting materials
to various mechanical and thermal processes can lead to their
failure, the subject
of Chapter 8. In addition, the systematic analysis of material
failures can lead to
the prevention of future catastrophes. Chapters 9 and 10 are
especially important
in providing a bridge between “materials science” and
“materials engineering.”
Phase diagrams (Chapter 9) are an effective tool for describing
the equilibrium
microstructures of practical engineering materials. Instructors
will note that this
topic is introduced in a descriptive and empirical way. Since
some students in this
course may not have taken a course in thermodynamics, I avoid
the use of the
free- energy property. Kinetics (Chapter 10) is the foundation
of the heat treat-
ment of engineering materials.
The words “materials engineering” give us a label for Part II of
the book that
deals with “Materials and Their Applications.” First, we discuss
the five categories
of structural materials: metals, ceramics, and glasses
(Chapter 11) and polymers
and composites (Chapter 12). In both chapters, we give
examples of each type of
structural material and describe their processing, the techniques
used to produce
the materials. In Chapter 13, we discuss electronic materials and
discover a sixth

category of materials, semiconductors, based on an electrical
rather than bond-
ing classification system. Metals are generally good electrical
conductors, while
ceramics, glasses, and polymers are generally good insulators,
and semiconduc-
tors are intermediate. The exceptional discovery of
superconductivity in certain
ceramic materials at relatively high temperatures augments the
long- standing
use of superconductivity in certain metals at very low
temperatures. Chapter 14
covers optical behavior that determines the application of many
materials, from
traditional glass windows to some of the latest advances in
telecommunications.
A wide variety of materials is also discussed in Chapter 14.
Traditional metallic
and ceramic magnets are being supplemented by
superconducting metals and
ceramics, which can provide some intriguing design
applications based on their
magnetic behavior. Finally, in Chapter 15 (Materials in
Engineering Design), we
see that our previous discussions of properties have left us with
“design param-
eters.” Herein lies a final bridge between the principles of
materials science and
the use of those materials in modern engineering designs. We
also must note that
chemical degradation, radiation damage, wear, and recycling
must be considered
in making a final judgment on a materials application.
I hope that students and instructors alike will find what I have
attempted to
produce: a clear and readable textbook organized around the
title of this impor-
tant branch of engineering. It is also worth noting that materials
play a central
role across the broad spectrum of contemporary science and
technology. In the
report Science: The End of the Frontier? from the American
Association for the
Advancement of Science, 10 of the 26 technologies identified at
the forefront of
economic growth are various types of advanced materials.
In the presentation of this book, I have attempted to be generous
with
examples and practice problems within each chapter, and I have
tried to be even
more generous with the end- of- chapter homework problems
(with the level of
difficulty for the homework problems clearly noted). Problems
dealing with the
role of materials in the engineering design process are noted
with the use of
a design icon . One of the most enjoyable parts of writing the
book was the
preparation of biographical footnotes for those cases in which a
person’s name
has become intimately associated with a basic concept in
materials science and
engineering. I suspect that most readers will share my
fascination with these great
contributors to science and engineering from the distant and
not- so- distant past.
In addition to a substantial set of useful data, the Appendices
provide convenient
location of materials properties and key term definitions.
The various editions of this book have been produced during a
period of
fundamental change in the field of materials science and
engineering. This change
was exemplified by the change of name in the Fall of 1986 for
the “American
Society for Metals” to “ASM International”—a society for
materials, as opposed
to metals only. An adequate introduction to materials science
can no longer be a
traditional treatment of physical metallurgy with supplementary
introductions to
nonmetallic materials. The first edition was based on a balanced
treatment of the
full spectrum of engineering materials.
Subsequent editions have reinforced that balanced approach
with the
timely addition of new materials that are playing key roles in
the economy of the
twenty- first century: lightweight metal alloys, “high tech”
ceramics for advanced
structural applications, engineering polymers for metal
substitution, advanced
composites for aerospace applications, increasingly
miniaturized semiconductor
devices, high- temperature ceramic superconductors, fullerene
carbons, graphene,

engineered biomaterials, and biological materials. Since the
debut of the first edi-
tion, we have also seen breakthroughs in materials
characterization, such as the
evolution of the high-resolution transmission electron
microscope (HRTEM),
and in materials processing, such as additive manufacturing
(AM). “Feature
boxes” have been introduced in recent editions. These one- or
two-page case stud-
ies labeled “The Material World” are located in each chapter to
provide a focus
on some fascinating topics in the world of both engineered and
natural materials.
A feature continued from the Seventh Edition is to emphasize
the concept of
“Powers of Ten.” In Chapter 1, we point out that an underlying
principle of mate-
rials science is that understanding the behavior of materials in
engineering designs
(on the human scale) is obtained by looking at mechanisms that
occur at various
fine scales, such as the atomic-scale diffusion of carbon atoms
involved in the heat
treatment of steel. There is a full ten orders of magnitude
difference between the
size of typical engineered products and the size of typical
atoms. Much of modern
engineering practice has depended on engineering designs based
on microme-
ter-scale structures, such as the transistors in an integrated
circuit. Increasingly,
engineers are designing systems involving the nanometer-scale.
At various times
throughout the text, a Powers of Ten icon will be used to
highlight discussions that
demonstrate this structure-property relationship.
New to this Edition
As with previous editions, an effort has been made to add the
most important
advances in engineering materials, as well as respond to
recommendations of
previous users for additional content coverage. The results are:
• Updated discussions of the expanding importance of materials
in nanotech-
nology throughout the text;
• Examples of the role of materials in flat screen and flat panel
technology
throughout the text;
• Addition of graphene to the discussion of advances in carbon
materials in
Chapter 3;
• Coverage of the rapidly emerging field of additive
manufacturing (by 3D
printing) in Chapter 11;
• A candid discussion of the increasing role of biological
materials in materi-
als science and how that expands the definition of this field
(Feature Box in
Chapter 12);
• Expanded coverage of ferroelectrics and piezoelectrics in
Chapter 13;
• Coverage of optical and magnetic materials in a new Chapter
14;
• Expanded coverage of corrosion in Chapter 15.

    als science andengineering.” To me, this label serves two important functions. First, it is an accurate description of the balance between scientific principles and practical engineering that is required in selecting the proper materials for modern technology. Second, it gives us a guide to organizing this book. After a short introductory chapter, “science” serves as a label for Part I on “The Fun- damentals.” Chapters 2 through 10 cover various topics in applied physics and chemistry. These are the foundation for understanding the principles of “mate- rials science.” I assume that some students take this course at the freshman or sophomore level and may not yet have taken their required coursework in chem- istry and physics. As a result, Part I is intended to be self- contained. A previous course in chemistry or physics is certainly helpful, but should not be necessary. If an entire class has finished freshman chemistry, Chapter 2 (atomic bonding) could be left as optional reading, but it is important not to overlook the role of bonding in defining the fundamental types of engineering materials. The remain- ing chapters in Part I are less optional, as they describe the key topics of materials science. Chapter 3 outlines the ideal, crystalline structures of important materi- als. Chapter 4 introduces the structural imperfections found in real, engineering materials. These structural defects are the bases of solid- state diffusion (Chap-

    ter 5) andplastic deformation in metals (Chapter 6). Chapter 6 also includes a broad range of mechanical behavior for various engineering materials. Similarly, Chapter 7 covers the thermal behavior of these materials. Subjecting materials to various mechanical and thermal processes can lead to their failure, the subject of Chapter 8. In addition, the systematic analysis of material failures can lead to the prevention of future catastrophes. Chapters 9 and 10 are especially important in providing a bridge between “materials science” and “materials engineering.” Phase diagrams (Chapter 9) are an effective tool for describing the equilibrium microstructures of practical engineering materials. Instructors will note that this topic is introduced in a descriptive and empirical way. Since some students in this course may not have taken a course in thermodynamics, I avoid the use of the free- energy property. Kinetics (Chapter 10) is the foundation of the heat treat- ment of engineering materials. The words “materials engineering” give us a label for Part II of the book that deals with “Materials and Their Applications.” First, we discuss the five categories of structural materials: metals, ceramics, and glasses (Chapter 11) and polymers and composites (Chapter 12). In both chapters, we give examples of each type of structural material and describe their processing, the techniques used to produce

    the materials. InChapter 13, we discuss electronic materials and discover a sixth Preface x Preface category of materials, semiconductors, based on an electrical rather than bond- ing classification system. Metals are generally good electrical conductors, while ceramics, glasses, and polymers are generally good insulators, and semiconduc- tors are intermediate. The exceptional discovery of superconductivity in certain ceramic materials at relatively high temperatures augments the long- standing use of superconductivity in certain metals at very low temperatures. Chapter 14 covers optical behavior that determines the application of many materials, from traditional glass windows to some of the latest advances in telecommunications. A wide variety of materials is also discussed in Chapter 14. Traditional metallic and ceramic magnets are being supplemented by superconducting metals and ceramics, which can provide some intriguing design applications based on their magnetic behavior. Finally, in Chapter 15 (Materials in Engineering Design), we see that our previous discussions of properties have left us with “design param- eters.” Herein lies a final bridge between the principles of

    materials science and theuse of those materials in modern engineering designs. We also must note that chemical degradation, radiation damage, wear, and recycling must be considered in making a final judgment on a materials application. I hope that students and instructors alike will find what I have attempted to produce: a clear and readable textbook organized around the title of this impor- tant branch of engineering. It is also worth noting that materials play a central role across the broad spectrum of contemporary science and technology. In the report Science: The End of the Frontier? from the American Association for the Advancement of Science, 10 of the 26 technologies identified at the forefront of economic growth are various types of advanced materials. In the presentation of this book, I have attempted to be generous with examples and practice problems within each chapter, and I have tried to be even more generous with the end- of- chapter homework problems (with the level of difficulty for the homework problems clearly noted). Problems dealing with the role of materials in the engineering design process are noted with the use of a design icon . One of the most enjoyable parts of writing the book was the preparation of biographical footnotes for those cases in which a person’s name has become intimately associated with a basic concept in

    materials science and engineering.I suspect that most readers will share my fascination with these great contributors to science and engineering from the distant and not- so- distant past. In addition to a substantial set of useful data, the Appendices provide convenient location of materials properties and key term definitions. The various editions of this book have been produced during a period of fundamental change in the field of materials science and engineering. This change was exemplified by the change of name in the Fall of 1986 for the “American Society for Metals” to “ASM International”—a society for materials, as opposed to metals only. An adequate introduction to materials science can no longer be a traditional treatment of physical metallurgy with supplementary introductions to nonmetallic materials. The first edition was based on a balanced treatment of the full spectrum of engineering materials. Subsequent editions have reinforced that balanced approach with the timely addition of new materials that are playing key roles in the economy of the twenty- first century: lightweight metal alloys, “high tech” ceramics for advanced structural applications, engineering polymers for metal substitution, advanced composites for aerospace applications, increasingly miniaturized semiconductor devices, high- temperature ceramic superconductors, fullerene

    carbons, graphene, Preface xi engineeredbiomaterials, and biological materials. Since the debut of the first edi- tion, we have also seen breakthroughs in materials characterization, such as the evolution of the high-resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), and in materials processing, such as additive manufacturing (AM). “Feature boxes” have been introduced in recent editions. These one- or two-page case stud- ies labeled “The Material World” are located in each chapter to provide a focus on some fascinating topics in the world of both engineered and natural materials. A feature continued from the Seventh Edition is to emphasize the concept of “Powers of Ten.” In Chapter 1, we point out that an underlying principle of mate- rials science is that understanding the behavior of materials in engineering designs (on the human scale) is obtained by looking at mechanisms that occur at various fine scales, such as the atomic-scale diffusion of carbon atoms involved in the heat treatment of steel. There is a full ten orders of magnitude difference between the size of typical engineered products and the size of typical atoms. Much of modern engineering practice has depended on engineering designs based on microme-

    ter-scale structures, suchas the transistors in an integrated circuit. Increasingly, engineers are designing systems involving the nanometer-scale. At various times throughout the text, a Powers of Ten icon will be used to highlight discussions that demonstrate this structure-property relationship. New to this Edition As with previous editions, an effort has been made to add the most important advances in engineering materials, as well as respond to recommendations of previous users for additional content coverage. The results are: • Updated discussions of the expanding importance of materials in nanotech- nology throughout the text; • Examples of the role of materials in flat screen and flat panel technology throughout the text; • Addition of graphene to the discussion of advances in carbon materials in Chapter 3; • Coverage of the rapidly emerging field of additive manufacturing (by 3D printing) in Chapter 11; • A candid discussion of the increasing role of biological materials in materi- als science and how that expands the definition of this field (Feature Box in
