This dictionary has been complied by coworkers of the Department of Applied Linguistics of the Dresden University of Technology. It comprises the special terms of a highly important economical branch of science and technology. Corrosion-induced damage occurs in every branch of technology, and subsequent losses in money and material are enormous. Experts estimate that about one-third of the annual world production of steel and iron is destroyed by corrosion. Corrosion protection is thus becoming increasingly important in order to solve the problems involved, a profound understanding of corrosion processes and of the possibilities of corrosion control is indispensible. The dictionary comprises approximately 3,000 entries in each part taken from a wide variety of fields.
