Micro and Nanophased Polymeric Composites: Durability Assessment in Engineering Applications provides a comprehensive review of in-service environmental damage and degradation studies of FRP composites in a broad range of different applications. End-users such as academic and industrial researchers and materials scientists and engineers working in the design, analysis, and manufacture of composite material systems will be able to identify the possible superior advantages and limitations of FRP composites in various applications. Particular emphasis is given on the identification of various failure micro-mechanisms leading to unprecedented failure in different harsh and hostile environments.Divided into two distinct parts, the first section focuses on fundamentals, with key chapters on the main constituents of FRP composites, mechanical properties, characterization techniques, and processing and fabrication techniques. Part two focuses on polymer composites under different in-service applications, including the marine and space environment, chemical and corrosive environments, high and low temperature environments, and other critical environments. - Covers various micro-mechanisms of failure under different environmental conditions, including moisture diffusion kinetics and the effects of aging parameters on microstructures - Discusses the impact of different nanoscale reinforcements on the environmental durability of conventional FRP composites - Presents a comprehensive approach with widespread applications such as low earth orbit space environments and different corrosive environments

Professor Ray is currently 'Prof. S. S. Pani Chair Professor” at the Metallurgical and Materials Engineering Department, National Institute of Technology (NIT), Rourkela, India. He has been working at NIT Rourkela since 1989. Prof. Ray's research centres on the impact of extreme environmental conditions on fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. Dr. Ray has been selected by UNESCO and the Australian Expert Committee for Industries in the Asia-Pacific region based on SCI. He has been serving as a technical advisor to TATA Steel Limited (New Materials Business). He has been serving as the editor of a SCI Journal-Transactions of the Indian Institute of Metals (TIIM) Journal. Prof. Ray holds many distinguished chairs in reputed institutions and committees across the country. He has also supervised 20 PhD scholars. Prof. Ray has published more than 175 SCI Journals and 7 Books (CRC, Elsevier, Springer and Wiley publishing houses), and involved in 25 sponsored projects & consultancy services from various government and leading private industries.
