"Materials of Chemical Plant Construction--non-metals" (1922) delves into the application and properties of non-metallic materials used in the construction of chemical plants. Written by Hugh Griffiths, the book offers insights into the selection and utilization of these materials to ensure durability and resistance to chemical corrosion.
Focusing on the practical aspects of engineering, the book likely covers topics such as the characteristics of specific non-metals (e. g. , various polymers, ceramics, and other composite materials), their strengths and weaknesses in different chemical environments, and their role in maintaining structural integrity. It would be of interest to engineers and students looking at the foundations of chemical engineering and industrial applications of materials science, offering a historical perspective on the materials available during the early 20th century.
