The new edition of LaQue's classic text on marine corrosion,
providing fully updated control engineering practices and
applications Extensively updated throughout, the second edition of
La Que's Handbook of Marine Corrosion remains the standard
single-source reference on the unique nature of seawater as a
corrosive environment. Designed to help readers reduce operational
and life cycle costs for materials in marine environments, this
authoritative resource provides clear guidance on design, materials
selection, and implementation of corrosion control engineering
practices for materials in atmospheric, immersion, or wetted marine
environments. Completely rewritten for the 21st century, this new
edition reflects current environmental regulations, best practices,
materials, and processes, with special emphasis placed on the
engineering, behavior, and practical applications of materials.
Divided into three parts, the book first explains the fundamentals
of corrosion in marine environments, including atmospheric
corrosion, erosion, microbiological corrosion, fatigue,
environmental cracking, and cathodic delamination. The second part
discusses corrosion control methods and materials selection that
can mitigate or eliminate corrosion in different marine
environments. The third section provides the reader with specific
applications of corrosion engineering to structures, systems, or
components that exist in marine environments. This much-needed new
edition: Presents a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the
science and engineering aspects of marine corrosion Focuses on
engineering aspects, descriptive behavior, and practical
applications of materials usage in marine environments Addresses
the various materials used in marine environments, including
metals, polymers, alloys, coatings, and composites Incorporates
current regulations, standards, and recommended practices of
numerous organizations such as ASTM International, the US Navy, the
American Bureau of Shipping, the International Organization for
Standardization, and the International Maritime Organization
Written in a clear and understandable style, La Que's Handbook of
Marine Corrosion, Second Edition is an indispensable resource for
engineers and materials scientists in disciplines spanning the
naval, maritime, commercial, shipping industries, particularly
corrosion engineers, ship designers, naval architects, marine
engineers, oceanographers, and other professionals involved with
products that operate in marine environments.
