The environmental degradation and corrosion of materials is inevitable and affects most aspects of life. In industrial settings, this inescapable fact has very significant financial, safety and environmental implications. The Handbook of Environmental Degradation of Materials explains how to measure, analyse, and control environmental degradation for a wide range of industrial materials including metals, polymers, ceramics, concrete, wood and textiles exposed to environmental factors such as weather, seawater, and fiMaterialsEffect of environment onHandbooks, manuals, etcEnvironmental degradationElectronic books.MaterialsEffect of environment onEnvironmental degradation.620.1620.1/122620.11223Kutz Myer300574MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910462329703321Handbook of environmental degradation of materials2003478UNINA
