Most processed materials retain a memory of their production
process at the molecular level. Subtle changes in production'such
as variations in temperature or the presence of impurities can
impart performance benefits or drawbacks to individual batches of
products. Some product developers have taken advantage of this
process dependency to tailor properties to specific customer needs.
In other cases, poorly engineered processes have resulted in
serious failures. Process Techniques for Engineering
High-Performance Materials explores practical strategies to guide
you in systematically developing, improving, and producing
engineered materials. The book describes an RandD approach that is
common to many material types, from polymers, biochemicals, metal
alloys, and composites to coatings, ceramics, elastomers, and
processed foods. Throughout, hundreds of examples illustrate
successes and disasters in the history of materials development.
These examples clearly show how product management and development
tactics are constrained by the nature of the production process and
the strategy of the company. The author offers practical advice on
how to: Foster creativity in an industrial environment and avoid
factors that unintentionally suppress technical innovation Develop
products when the properties of the product are highly dependent on
processing variables Avoid the inevitable scale-up problems that
occur on process-dependent materials Get the most out of expensive
trial work in a production plant environment Combine products into
a systems solution to customer problems Highlighting important
rules for product development, this book helps you better
understand the mechanics of engineering processed materials and how
to adjust your processes to improve performance.
