ASM International and the Alloy Center.

ASM International And The Alloy Center

ASM International has emerged as one of the strongest providers of numeric materials data sources, and those sources are generally in three formats or platforms, hard copy, disk (usually CD-ROM), and the Alloy Center on the Internet. As an example, one of the most extensive sources of high- and low-temperature data for aluminum alloys has recently been made available through a collaborative effort of ASM and the Aluminum Association in both the book Properties of Aluminum Alloys Tensile, Creep, and Fatigue Data at High and Low Temperatures 11 and a searchable CD of the same title. Other representative data sources from ASM

International include the following,

● ASM Handbook, 12 in Hard Copy and CD. Twenty volumes complete or available in a specific set covering material properties, the data sets are available for single work-stations and also for local area network (LAN) arrangements. Other CDs are available covering heat treatment, testing and analysis, and manufacturing processes.

● Alloy Finder CD, Contains full alloy records from three ASM hard-copy reference standards, Woldman’s Engineering Alloys, 13 the ASM Worldwide Guide to Equivalent Irons and Steels.14 and the ASM Worldwide Guide to Equivalent Nonferrous Metals and Alloys. 15 The disk is searchable by composition as well as designation, so whether the user requires amplification of an alloy designation or to locate designations within specific composition ranges, the need is addressed.

● Alloy Digest on CD, Summaries of recently published data for new and emerging alloys are compiled periodically on disk as well as being made available in hard copy. The advantages include early warning of new materials, the limitation is the inability to provide consistent formats or data scope because such are not available for relatively new materials. More than 4200 data sheets are now available.

● Binary-Phase Diagrams on CD-ROM. The world’s most extensive collection of binary-phase diagrams numbering in excess of 4700 is available on CD, in addition to ASM hard-copy publications such Handbook of Ternary Alloy Phase Diagrams and the monograph series on specific alloy groupings.

● Failure Analysis on CD-ROM, One of the most extensive collection of data expressly developed for failure analysis is available on searchable CD-ROM as well as hard copy.

● Materials Databases, Numeric materials databases covering a variety of classes of materials are available from ASM on disk in various formats, including within Mat, DB, MAPP, and Rover search software. The databases are organized and searchable by mechanical and physical property as well as alloy class, steel and stainless steel, aluminum, composites, copper, magnesium, plastics and polymers, nylon, and titanium, plus special disk covering corrosion data.

●Alloy Center on the ASM International Website, In collaboration with Granta Design, ASM International has established an extensive Alloy Center on its website www.asminternational.org that provides searchable access to a wide and growing range of numeric materials property data. Where justified, some are presented in graphical format. The ASM Alloy Center is available for a reasonable subscription fee and, together with the availability of the ASM handbook series online, provides a formidable source of materials information.
