Understand thermodynamics as materials scientists actually use it-not as a collection of formulas, but as a powerful framework for predicting why materials behave the way they do.

Thermodynamics in Materials Science builds a complete, connected foundation from the classical laws of thermodynamics to phase equilibria, transformation kinetics, diffusion, computational thermodynamics, and modern materials design.
Whether you are studying materials science, metallurgy, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, or strengthening your professional understanding of material behavior, this handbook helps you connect equations to the physical processes occurring inside real solids, liquids, alloys, ceramics, polymers, and nanomaterials.
Inside, you will learn to:
  • Master the zeroth, first, second, and third laws and apply Gibbs and Helmholtz free energy
  • Understand statistical thermodynamics, entropy, lattice vibrations, heat capacity, and point defects
  • Analyze solid and liquid solutions, chemical potential, and multicomponent equilibrium
  • Read and interpret binary and ternary phase diagrams, including eutectic, peritectic, and monotectic systems
  • Understand nucleation, solidification, precipitation, martensitic transformations, and diffusion-controlled kinetics
  • Connect thermodynamics with surfaces, grain boundaries, CALPHAD, alloy design, ceramics, polymers, high-entropy alloys, and nanomaterials
  • Reinforce each major topic through worked reasoning, derivations, and chapter summaries
Rather than presenting mathematics in isolation, the book consistently connects equations to practical questions involving phase stability, heat treatment, microstructure evolution, alloy processing, and materials selection.
From classical thermodynamics to modern computational materials design, this is a structured foundation for understanding what state a material wants to reach, why it wants to reach it, and what controls how it gets there.

Build the thermodynamic intuition behind modern materials science-start mastering the subject today.
