Senior or graduate smdents in materials science, chemistry and chemical engineering as well as professional scientists and engineers faced with problems of corrosion and surface engineering should profit from this book. It can be used as a textbook in university level courses or for self study. The content is suited for general corrosion courses as well as for introductory comses on the electrochemistry and surface chemistry of metals and oxides. Indeed, the selection of material can be easily adapted to different needs. For example, a corrosion course for engineering students may introduce just the most basic notions of Chapters 2,4, and 6, with more...

In dry air the stability of zinc is remarkable. Once the protective layer of zinc oxide formed initially is complete, the attack ceases. Even under under normal urban conditions, such as those in London, zinc sheet 0 -8 mm thick has been found to have an effective life of 40 years or more when used as a roof covering and no repair has been needed except for mechanical damage. The presence of water does, of course, increase the rate of corrosion when water is present the initial corrosion product is zinc hydroxide, which is then converted by the action of carbon dioxide to a basic zinc carbonate, probably of composition similar to ZnCOj 3Zn(OH)2 . In very damp conditions unprotected zinc sometimes forms a loose and more conspicuous form of corrosion product known as wet storage stain or white rust (see p. 4.171). 

The choice of the proper piping concept is essential for a valid multipurpose plant design. The basic requirements for a piping system are, beside corrosion resistance for a wide array of substances, ease of cleanability (due to quality and costs) and, of course, a high degree of flexibility in order to ensure the needed multipurpose character of the plant. Typically, the following approaches are available ... 

Corrosion products such as the oxides, hydroxides, carbonates, sulfates, basic sulfates hydroxy carbonates, hydroxy chlorides are formed in the various environments (marine, urban, rural, industrial) and the initially loosely bound products may become adherent in the course of time. Corrosion can occur in the pores of the corrosion product layers. The low corrosion rate observed in atmospheric corrosion, R has been expressed as ... 

This book is intended both for self study and as a graduate textbook. Each of the two parts can serve as the basis of a one-semester course. In Part one I have included the very minimum needed for developing a basic understanding of interfacial electrochemistry. In Part two some of the same subjects are dealt with in further detail and new subjects are introduced, to provide a broader appreciation of this area of science. It is recommended for scientists and engineers in chemistry, chemical engineering, materials science, corrosion, battery... 

The calcium hydroxide which is formed in accordance with equation (4) produces a strongly basic environment (pH > 12) in the freshly hardened cement paste (and therefore in mortar and concrete). This high pH value inhibits the corrosion of embedded steel and is indeed what makes reinforced concrete such a durable material in which the reinforcing bars are normally so well and lastingly protected by the concrete. However, as a result of carbonation and other influences, this protective action may diminish in course of time. 

The mechanical degradation mechanism may proceed by the formation of radicals and sometimes of free ions when macromolecule bonds are weak as well as when they are weakened by a media of high dielectric constant [17]. Mechanical degradation affects the corrosion processes of plastic materials. Its progression depends on the frequency of mechanical stresses, on the temperature (a low temperature makes plastics more brittle), on the oxygen pressure (oxygen reacts with free radicals and activates their production), on the nature and the size of additive particles, and of course on the nature and the structure of the basic polymer.

Corrosion managemeait deals with the study and implementation of techniques and methods such as cathodic protection, coatings and materials selection to mitigate corrosion, and of course, microbial corrosion. In this chapter, the main basics and logics of some of these inportant techniques were explained. The next chpter... 

This very separate class of pumps comes in four basic models, each with a different elastomer, capable of working with over 900 fluids including solvents, corrosive acids, alkalis, oils, pesticides and more. These fluids are found in every kind of facility, be it electronic, automotive or pharmaceutical manufacturing as well as golf courses, land care and highway maintenance departments.
