Topics in Number 46 include: Comprehensive review of the structural aspects and anti-corrosion properties of passive films on metals and alloys; a detailed description is given of the nucleation and growth of 2-dimensional passive films at earlier stages, their effect on the corrosion properties of metal surfaces, and the nanostructures of 3-dimensional passive films Research on nano- and micro-fabrications based on anodizing treatments combined with chemical/mechanical processes such as laser irradiation, atomic force micro-probe processing, and thin film deposition techniques Passivity of aluminum-based amorphous alloys and stainless steels and the catalytic activity of copper-based amorphous alloys Theoretical analysis of the admittance behavior of passive film/electrolyte junction based on the theory of amorphous semiconductor Schottky barriers From reviews of previous volumes: "This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science... [and]... deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers." Chemistry and Industry "Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry "Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry. . . . The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series." Bulletin of Electrochemistry "Extremely well-referenced and very readable.... Maintains the overall high standards of the series." Journal of the American Chemical Society

Service Life Prediction of Polymeric Materials: Global Perspectives combines content developed from topics discussed in the Fourth International Symposium on Service Life Prediction (Key Largo, Florida, December 2006). This critical examination of existing and alternative methodologies for evaluation of the service life of polymeric materials presents readers with the advances in accelerated and field exposure testing protocols. Written by established experts in the service life community, this volume introduces advanced test methods, including high throughput and combinatorial analyses, and decision support systems having a strong scientific basis. Researchers, engineers, and coatings technologists involved with materials and polymer science will find Service Life Prediction of Polymeric Materials: Global Perspectives a useful reference.

Thin calcium phosphate coatings of about 10 µm or less can improve the bone response in orthopedic and dental implants by overcoming the drawbacks of commercially successful, thick plasma-sprayed coatings. These alternative coatings have shown better adhesion to a variety of substrates and, because of their uniformity in structure and composition, greater stability in the biological environment. Thin Calcium Phosphate Coatings for Medical Implants presents a comprehensive, state-of-the-art review of the preparation, physico-chemical properties, and in vitro and in vivo performance of these bioactive coatings, including comparisons with thick plasma-sprayed techniques. Emphasis is also placed on the benefits of special characterization techniques for this type of thin coating. This book is an essential resource not only for biomaterials researchers and their students, but also for engineers in the design, development, and manufacture of medical implants.

Het leerboek materiaalkunde voor technici is een inleiding in de materiaalkunde voor studenten werktuigbouwkunde, vliegtuigbouwkunde, scheepsbouwkunde en aanverwante studies. Daarnaast zal het boek zijn weg vinden onder ontwerpers, constructeurs en materiaalkundigen, maar is het ook toegankelijk voor anderen die zijdelings met materiaalkunde te maken hebben, zoals bedrijfskundigen, forensisch onderzoek en chemisch technologen. 
Het boek is visueel opgezet, met een duidelijke indeling rond materiaalkeuze, materiaalkunde en materiaalkennis. Bij de materiaalkeuze per materiaalgroep wordt deels gebruik gemaakt van de bijzondere inzichtelijke wijze van presenteren van de 'methode Ashby'. Voor een meer gespecificeerde materiaalkeuze is meer materiaalkundige kennis nodig. Vandaar dat de groepskeuze is uitgebreid met kennis over specifieke legeringen. De materiaalspecificaties volgen de meest gebruikelijke Europese normaanduidingen, die met name ook aan DIN-normen gelieerd zijn. 
Het boek behandelt alle materialen die toegepast worden in werktuigbouwkundige constructies: metalen, kunststoffen en keramiek. Alle belangrijke keurzeaspecten komen daarbij aan de orde. Per materiaalgroep worden de belangrijkste eigenschappen besproken. Daarnaast wordt ingegaan op de verwerking van materialen, de beperkingen van materialen, het correct specificeren van materialen in een technische tekening of een ontwerp, enz. De belangrijkste gegevens van de materialen worden in tabelvorm gerubiceerd. 
Op veel plaatsen in het boek staan verwijzingen naar websites met meer gegevens, voorbeelden, toepassingen, enz. Op de website van de uitgever (www.academicservice.nl) is een document beschikbaar met alle verwijzingen als hyperlinks, zodat de genoemde internetpagina's rechtstreeks toegankelijk zijn.
