Methods for Phase Diagram Determination

Phase diagrams are "maps" materials scientists often use to design new materials. They define what they are and how they are mixed together. This monograph is the most comprehensive reference book. It covers a wide range of diagrams of metals, ceramics, slags, and hydrides.

* Extensive discussion on methodologies of experimental measurements and data assessments
* Written by experts around the world, both traditional and combinatorial methodologies
* A must-read for experimental measurements of phase diagrams
