Product Description
The purpose of this text is to train engineers and technologists not just to
understand corrosion but to control it. Materials selection, coatings, chemical
inhibitors, cathodic and anodic protection, and equipment design are covered
in separate chapters. High-temperature oxidation is discussed in the final two
chapters—one on oxidation theory and one on controlling oxidation by alloying
and with coatings.
 
This book treats corrosion and high-temperature oxidation separately. Corrosion
is divided into three groups: (1) chemical dissolution including uniform attack,
(2) electrochemical corrosion from either metallurgical or environmental cells, and
(3) stress-assisted corrosion. Corrosion is logically grouped according to
mechanisms rather than arbitrarily separated into different types of corrosion as
if they were unrelated.
 
For those university students and industry personnel who approach corrosion
theory very hesitantly, this text will present the electrochemical reactions
responsible for corrosion summed up in only five simple half-cell reactions.
When these are combined on a polarization diagram, which is also explained in
detail, the electrochemical processes become obvious.
 
For those who want a text stripped bare of electrochemical theory, several noted
sections can be omitted without loss of continuity. However, the author has
presented the material in such a manner that these sections are not beyond the
abilities of any high school graduate who is interested in technology.

Product Description
This newly updated (2000) CASTI handbook covers all aspects of clad products - the
different means of manufacture, properties and applications in various industries.
Topics include: an introduction to cladding technology, clad plate, clad pipes, bends,
clad fittings, specification requirements of clad products, welding clad products, clad
product application and case histories from around the world. Unique to this book is
the documentation of case histories of major cladding projects from around the world
and how the technology of that day has withstood the demands of time. Filled with
over 100 photos and graphics illustrating the various cladding technology examples
and products, this book truly documents the most recent technologies in the field of
cladding technology used worldwide. This book is available in print and as an Acrobat
PDF e-book on CD-ROM which is fully searchable, hypertext linked, with each page
printable.

Product Description
This book is designed for readers having a basic knowledge of corrosion processes,
but who need more practical, specific information on combating metallic corrosion in
soils. It covers: estimating the degree of corrosion danger, installing a system to
avoid or minimize corrosion, detecting and measuring the corrosion in the system,
providing corrosion protection, and proving that the protection is effective.
