Nickel, Cobalt, and Their Alloys

ASM Specialty Handbook: Nickel, Cobalt, and Their Alloys is a comprehensive guide to the compositions, properties, processing, performance, and applications of nickel, cobalt, and their alloys. It features essential information adapted from the multi-volume ASM Handbook series, as well as expanded corrosion coverage with guidelines for selecting the best alloy for specific environments or applications; data sheets covering the compositions, specifications, applications, and properties for dozens of the most commercially important heat-, corrosion-, and wear-resistant nickel and cobalt alloys; advances in superalloy development including coatings to extend high-temperature service life; unique characteristics of nickel and cobalt that allow them to be used in special-purpose applications such as magnets, controlled-expansion devices, electronics, and implants for the human body; and engineering applications for nickel and cobalt coatings produced by electroplating, electroforming, electroless coating, thermal spraying, and weld surfacing.
