Book Description

September 1999 1860940838 978-1860940835
Materials of degradation studies - concerning corrosion, for example - have traditionally been divided into separate disciplines for each type of material. The control of materials degradation is usually studied as a separate topic, such as corrosion and paints. It is therefore difficult for a student to gain an overall view of the entire materials degradation problem with this scattered presentation of knowledge. This is a comprehensive review of the various forms of damage occurring in all significant engineering materials. It proceeds to discuss both traditional and modern technologies of surface engineering for combating materials degradation. Scientific concepts are illustrated graphically, wherever possible, by diagrams.

Editorial Reviews

Review

Review from 2nd Edition:

"Guidelines for applications of surface engineering techniques to individual degradation mechanisms are covered. This does a concise job of suggesting basic selection criteria to be followed for specific degradation mechanisms ... The authors present a good overview of the interaction of surface engineering treatments for control of material wastage from various causes." ---- Corrosion --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

From the Publisher

Readership: Engineers and scientists in industrial chemistry, materials science, surface and interface science. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.
