Billions of dollars are spent annually for the replacement of
corroded structures, machinery, and components. Premature failure
of bridges or structures due to corrosion can also result in human
injury, loss of life, and collateral damage. Written by an
authority in corrosion science, Fundamentals of Corrosion:
Mechanisms, Causes, and Preventative Methods comprehensively
describes the causes of corrosion-and the means to limit or prevent
it. Engineers, designers, architects, and all those involved with
the selection of construction materials will relish a reference
that provides such a thorough yet basic illustration of the causes,
prevention, and control of corrosion. This reference explores:
Mechanisms and forms of corrosion Methods of attack on plastic
materials Causes of failure in protective coatings, linings, and
paints Development of new alloys with corrosion-resistant
properties Exposure to the atmosphere is one of the largest
problems and biggest causes of corrosion that engineers and
designers face in construction. It has been further estimated that
the cost of protection against atmospheric corrosion accounts for
approximately half the total cost of all corrosion protection
methods. This book places special emphasis on atmospheric exposure
and presents vital information regarding the design of structures,
automobiles, household plumbing, manufacturing equipment, and other
entities, as well as the effects of de-icing chemicals on highways
and bridges.
