More About This Title Uhlig's Corrosion Handbook, Second Edition

English

The definitive handbook on corrosion, in an updated version from the classic 1948 edition. This new edition:


* Offers global coverage, providing data on corrosion rates of steel in major river systems around the world and atmospheric corrosion rates in many different parts of the world, including polar regions

* Presents the corrosion behavior of many new materials such as weathering steels and newer stainless alloys

* Discusses major advances since the first edition, including the development of many nonmetallic materials, their corrosion behavior, and engineering approaches to their corrosion control

R. Winston Revie has spent over 25 years at the Materials Technology Laboratory in Ottawa, where is the Program Manager. He is a former Chairman of the ASM Canada Council, the Electrochemical Society (Canadian section), and a former President of the Metallurgical Society of CIM. He is the Chair of the northern section of the National Association of Corrosion Engineering. Dr. Revie co-authored the 3rd edition of Corrosion and Control and was the editor for the 2nd edition of Uhlig’s Corrosion Handbook.
