Engineering Chemistry Third Edition

Engineering Chemestry I has been primarily written for first year B.Tech students but can also be used by BSc and MSc students to clarify their fundamental knowledge. The book begins with the basic theories of chemistry in various disciplines in order to provide a necessary background for dealing with a number of different physiochemical phenomena. Key Features 1. Brief discussion of the concepts 2. Coverage of syllabus in totality 3. Examination-oriented approach 4. Large number of solved problems 5. Solution to previous year's question papers 6. Exercises at the end of each chapter

The Third Edition of this book has been comprehensively revised in a coherent style to impart fundamental principles and useful applications of chemistry in engineering and technology. It provides extensive explanation of all five modules—Electrochemistry and Battery Technology, Corrosion and Metal Finishing, Fuels and Solar Energy, Polymers, Water Technology and Nanomaterials—with good emphasis on topics of interest in engineering. The newly added material to this edition certainly builds up the information as well as strengthens the text further. The book covers all those important topics that are required for the first-year undergraduate students of engineering of all branches for their course in Engineering Chemistry. NEW TO THE THIRD EDITION • Incorporates a new chapter on Nanomaterials. • Comprises new sections on Production of Solar Grade Silicon—Union Carbide Process, Purification of Silicon (Zone Refining) in the chapter on Chemical Energy Resources, and sections on Boiler’s Sludge and Scales, Priming, Foaming and Boiler Corrosion in the chapter on Water Technology. • Includes revamped section on Molecular Mass (Weight) of a Polymer in the chapter on High Polymers. • Contains a Model Test Paper to help the students from examination point of view.

Engineering Chemistry presents the subject with the aim of providing clear and sufficient understanding of chemistry To The students of engineering, As the same is imperative for any successful engineer. Some chapters in the book deal with the basic principles of chemistry while others are focused on its applied aspects, providing the correct interphase between the principles of chemistry and engineering. Key Features: * Chapters cover both basic principles of chemistry as also its applied aspects. * Written in easy self-explanatory language and in depth at the same time. * Clear diagrams and solved numerical problems included wherever required. * Review questions provided at the end of each chapter. * A separate section 'Laboratory Manual' in Engineering Chemistry comprising 12 experiments is appended at the end of the book.

Exploring the chemistry of synthesis, mechanisms of polymerization, reaction engineering of step-growth and chain-growth polymerization, polymer characterization, thermodynamics and structural, mechanical, thermal and transport behavior of polymers as melts, solutions and solids, Fundamentals of Polymer Engineering, Third Edition covers essential concepts and breakthroughs in reactor design and polymer production and processing. It contains modern theories and real-world examples for a clear understanding of polymer function and development. This fully updated edition addresses new materials, applications, processing techniques, and interpretations of data in the field of polymer science. It discusses the conversion of biomass and coal to plastics and fuels, the use of porous polymers and membranes for water purification, and the use of polymeric membranes in fuel cells. Recent developments are brought to light in detail, and there are new sections on the improvement of barrier properties of polymers, constitutive equations for polymer melts, additive manufacturing and polymer recycling. This textbook is aimed at senior undergraduate students and first year graduate students in polymer engineering and science courses, as well as professional engineers, scientists, and chemists. Examples and problems are included at the end of each chapter for concept reinforcement.

This book is written specifically to address the course curriculum in Engineering Physics for the first-year students of all branches of engineering. Though most of the topics covered are customarily taught in several universities and institutes, the book follows the sequence of topics as prescribed in the course syllabus of engineering colleges in Tamil Nadu. This new edition of the book continues to present the fundamental concepts of physics in a pedagogically sound manner. It includes a new chapter on Thermal Physics, which is essential for core engineering students. Furthermore, topics like crystal growth techniques, estimation of packing density of diamond and the relation between three moduli of elasticity are included at the appropriate places, to improve the understanding of the subject matter. KEY FEATURES • Several numerical problems (solved and unsolved) to strengthen the problem-solving ability of students • Short and Long questions at the end of each chapter • Model Test Papers with solutions • Summary at the end of each chapter to recapitulate the most important results of the chapter

Enhanced with a remarkable number of new problems and applications, the Second Edition of CHEMISTRY FOR ENGINEERS provides a concise, thorough, and relevant introduction to chemistry that prepares students for further study in any engineering field. Updated with even more questions and applications specifically geared toward engineering students, this edition emphasizes the connection between molecular properties and observable physical properties and the connections between chemistry and other subjects studied by engineering students, such as mathematics and physics. This new edition is now fully supported by OWL, the most widely-used online learning system for chemistry.
