The book briefly describes the structure, properties and applications of various grades of steel, primarily aimed at non-metallurgical students from other engineering streams. The book consists of nine chapters covering most of the important types of steels and their physical metallurgy, microstructure and engineering applications including iron-carbon diagram, heat treatment, surface hardening methods, effect of alloying, specific applications, selection of materials, case studies and so forth. The book also contains subjective and objective questions aimed at exam preparation. Key Features Exclusive title aimed at introduction to steels for non-metallurgy audience Includes microstructure, composition, and properties of all the most commonly used steels Describes the heat treatments and the required alloying additions to process steel for the intended applications Discusses effects of alloying elements on steel Explores development of steels for specialized areas such as the automobile, aerospace, and nuclear industries

Nuclear reactor technologies being developed for Generation IV reactors promise significant improvements in economics, safety, reliability and sustainability over present technologies by proper choice of cladding and structural material for the nuclear reactor. Studies to develop optimum combination of properties for steels intended for use as wrappers indicated that 9-12Cr type ferritic steels presented superior high temperature strength at temperatures below 873 K and excellent dimensional stability at high irradiation doses. Increasing the operating temperature by Oxide Dispersion Strengthening (ODS) of these steels will make them a promising candidate materials for advanced fast reactor core and fusion reactor blanket applications. The monograph elaborates the synthesis of nano-sized yttria dispersed 9%Cr martensitic steel by Mechanical Alloying (MA) and consolidation employing various powder compaction methodologies. Alloy powder characterization allowed optimization of experimental synthesis and bulk production. Characterization of the consolidated specimens was carried out to study the micro structural evolution during compaction.
