Beschreibung

Providing a thorough introduction to corrosion science and engineering, Corrosion and Corrosion Control, Fourth Edition uses a quantitative approach (including basic equations-explained and derived-and illustrative problems) to discuss the basic thermodynamic and electrochemical principles that cause corrosion and treats practical corrosion problems and methods of protection and prevention. To reflect the advances in the time since the Third edition, this Fourth Edition places a greater emphasis on environmental issues (like contamination potential of corrosion inhibitors) and introduces new topics like the corrosion of nanomaterials and the element of risk management in corrosion engineering and control.

Kurzbeschreibung

Corrosion is the gradual destruction of a metal by chemical or electrochemical means. It occurs during a reaction between a material, usually a metal, and its environment that produces a deterioration of the material and its properties. This Fourth Edition presents an updated overview of the essential aspects of corrosion science and engineering that underpin the tools and technologies that are used for managing corrosion, enhancing reliability, and preventing failures.
