Description
John Wiley And Sons Corrosion Prevention And Protection Practical Solutions by Sastri
Corrosion Prevention and Protection: Practical Solutions presents a functional approach to the various forms of corrosion, such as uniform corrosion, pitting corrosion, crevice corrosion, galvanic corrosion, stress corrosion, hydrogen-induced damage, sulphide stress cracking, erosion-corrosion, and corrosion fatigue in various industrial environments. The book is split into two parts.
The first, consisting of five chapters: * Introduction and Principles (Fundamentals) of Corrosion * Corrosion Testing, Detection, Monitoring and Failure Analysis * Regulations, Specifications and Safety * Materials: Metals, Alloys, Steels and Plastics * Corrosion Economics and Corrosion Management The second part of the book consists of two chapters which present: * a discussion of corrosion reactions, media, active and active-passive corrosion behaviour and the various forms of corrosion, * a collection of case histories and practical solutions which span a wide range of industrial problems in a variety of frequently encountered environments, including statues & monuments, corrosion problems in metallurgical and mineral processing plants, boilers, heat exchangers and cooling towers, aluminum and copper alloys, galvanized steel structures as well as h.show more
