Title: Essentials of carbon-carbon composites
Description: Essentials of Carbon-Carbon Composites provides in-depth coverage of a number of important topics in the science and technology of carbon-carbon composites. It is written by acknowledged experts in the field from government industrial and university backgrounds in the UK.

Essentials of Carbon-Carbon Composites, whilst not attempting to be a comprehensive treatise, aims to give a balanced and up-to-date picture of UK interests in carbon-carbon composite materials.

It includes an overview, which acts as an introduction for newcomers to the subject wishing to gain an appreciation of the scope of these uniquely versatile materials, and chapters providing authoritative accounts of important aspects of composition, manufacture, structure and behaviour of carbon-carbon composites.

This volume is aimed at graduate and post-graduate level and will appeal to readers with interests in advanced materials for use in extreme environments. Chemists, engineers and materials scientists in the aerospace, aircraft, biomedical and nuclear fields will find it of particular interest.
