This textbook addresses chemical thermodynamics in materials science, focusing on iron and steel making processes, from basic to advanced levels. A systematic understanding of thermodynamics is essential for improving processes and evaluating thermodynamic software calculations. However, comprehensive resources that cover both basic and advanced topics are scarce. This book fills that gap, linking foundational concepts found in general thermodynamic texts with their specialized applications, which are often only partially covered elsewhere. It serves as an educational tool for beginners, presenting the basics of chemical thermodynamics in an accessible way, supported by detailed explanations and schematic diagrams. Advanced learners, such as post-graduate students and researchers, can also benefit from the foundational sections to reinforce their understanding of core concepts. The book dedicates significant content to applications that enhance advanced skills while ensuring a solid grounding in the basics. Additionally, it includes around 50 examples with solutions, facilitating self-study and practical learning for readers at all levels.
