Metallography of yesterday, today and tomorrow

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6271358
This review begins briefly with early metallography and moves on to more recent developments in metallography, within the last 35 to 40 years: polishing methods, metallography in color, radiation metallography (of radioactive materials), magnetic etching, field metallography (in situ), metallography in failure analysis, and electron microscopy. Finally, future prospects are discussed. 77 references, 53 figures. (DLC)
