<p>Thoroughly revised and updated, this third edition of lan Polmear’s Light Alloys provides the definitive overview of the metallurgy of aluminum, magnesium and titanium alloys. The emphasis remains on manufacturing processes and application areas, in which there have been significant advances in recent years. The extraction of each metal is considered briefly, followed by its casting characteristics and alloying behavior. Sections on heat treatment properties, fabrication and major applications have been expanded to give more comprehensive coverage of the subjects. Particular attention has been paid to microstructure/property relationships as well as to the role of the individual alloying elements, and new materials and novel processes are reviewed in an additional chapter. This succinct and informative introduction to the physical metallurgy of the light alloys will be essential reading for advanced undergraduates in metallurgy, materials science, manufacturing and mechanical engineering. It will also prove invaluable to metallu## gists and engineers in industry seeking to expand on their knowledge.
