Book ·
OSTI ID:378108

In an age of increasing environmental concern about waste, pollution, and the performance of lean materials, an appreciation of corrosion and the techniques for controlling it is essential to all technologists. The second edition of Corrosion for Science and Engineering continues the tradition of the first by providing an accessible introduction with sympathetic and clear explanations for students.The reader is led through the basic theory and causes of corrosion toward an appreciation of effective corrosion management. This new edition retains the mixture of practice and theory. Key features include: an update on recent developments in impedance and electrochemical noise; a new section on microbiological corrosion; a new exposition on corrosion in society; extensive use of laboratory experiments; many worked examples, problems, and case studies illustrate the text.
