Metallographie

The textbook "Metallography" by Borntraeger offers a comprehensive and modern presentation of the essential knowledge required for the preparation of metal samples for microstructure examinations. It is aimed at professionals in materials manufacturing, processing, and testing, covering both macroscopic and microscopic examination methods for ferrous materials and non-ferrous metals. The content is clearly structured and includes characteristic microstructure images that illustrate and interpret the results of the examinations. Additionally, the relationship between microstructure images, material composition, and the technological treatment of the material is explained in detail. The third, completely revised edition expands the range of materials covered and updates the relevant technical standards. Practical tips for a rational approach to metallographic work complete the volume, making it a valuable reference work for students and professionals.
