The ninth edition of this book contains the biggest changes in its almost thirty year existence.
We put all of the “must know” fundamentals up front. The first chapter now contains non-
destructive testing information that was formerly in the last chapter. The second chapter
contains the chemistry fundamentals formerly in the introduction chapter and Chapters 3 and 4
were rewritten with the goal of making sure that students know their properties; mechanical,
physical, and chemical. We have observed this as a weakness in many technicians and
engineers. They need to understand thoroughly the differences between strength, stiffness, and
toughness. They need to know the practical importance of thermal expansion, conductivity,
density, ferromagnetism, and other physical properties.
We follow these “fundamental” chapters with chapters on tribology and corrosion. Thus, we
deal with the impediments to serviceability, wear, corrosion, and breakage before we discuss
specific materials. All materials are subject to these issues and the thought is that we can now
readily discuss how specific materials respond to these issues.
The specific material chapters remain about the same as in previous editions, but each was
updated to respond to current usage. We added a “global concern” section to each chapter to
address current research, market conditions, availability, and any other issues that can affect
selection. Chapter 22 is new and is intended to give students an introduction to the hot topic of
this first decade of the new millennium – nanotechnology. It is so diverse in application that it is
hard to teach “nanotechnology.” Instead, we recommend concentration on the tools and how
they are used to work with nanometer-sized materials. The tools apply to nano aspects in
medicine as well as additives to molded plastics.
This manual contains an overview with our teaching opinions on the chapter subject, followed by
a listing of chapter goals, a lecture outline, and answers to end-of-chapter questions. The lecture
outline can be made into PowerPoint slides to show students what will be covered in lectures.
There is also a “PowerPoint presentation” on each chapter available from the publisher.
The chapter end questions are all new to this edition. Since this manual was only reviewed by
one person, and it takes several revisions to get a perfect new text, you may find some typos and
errors. Please let us know of any you may find.
We believe that this edition of Engineering Materials: Properties and Selection is the best yet.
We have tried to make it apply to all fields. Previous editions were slanted toward machine
designers. This bias has been removed since there are less and less engineers working in
manufacturing. We wrote this edition for all material users.
Thank you for selecting Engineering Materials: Properties and Selection for your students. We
hope that it meets your teaching and reference needs, and that it stimulates interest on the part of
