Description
Taylor & Francis Inc Corrosion Issues in Light Water Reactors Stress Corrosion Cracking (Number 51) by Damien Feron and J M Olive
With its distinguished editor and army of contributors, this book sums up key recent research on corrosion in light water reactors and its practical applications. The book begins with an overview of materials degradation due to stress corrosion, corrosion potential monitoring and passivation. It summarizes research on susceptibility of materials to stress corrosion cracking and the ways it can be initiated. The book then considers stress corrosion crack propagation processes whilst the final part includes practical case studies of corrosion in particular plants. It reviews corrosion in a range of materials such as low alloy steels, stainless steels and nickel-based alloys._x000D_show more
