More About This Title Corrosion and Corrosion Control, 3rd Edition
English
This standard work in corrosion science and engineering, 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. A new chapter covers cobalt and its alloys, and expanded discussions focus on electrochemical polarization, cracking, fatigue and steel reinforcements in concrete.
