With comprehensive coverage of the principles of corrosion engineering, this book is a one-stop text and reference for students and practicing corrosion engineers. Highly illustrated, with worked examples and definitions, it covers basic corrosion principles, and more advanced information for postgraduate students and professionals. Basic principles of electrochemistry and chemical thermodynamics are incorporated to make the book accessible for students and engineers who do not have prior knowledge of this area. Each form of corrosion covered in the book has a definition, description, mechanism, examples and preventative methods. Case histories of failure are cited for each form. End of chapter questions are accompanied by an online solutions manual. * Comprehensively covers the principles of corrosion engineering, methods of corrosion protection and corrosion processes and control in selected engineering environments * Structured for corrosion science and engineering classes at senior undergraduate and graduate level, and is an ideal reference that readers will want to use in their professional work * Worked examples, extensive end of chapter exercises and accompanying online solutions and written by an expert from a key pretochemical university 533 $aElectronic reproduction.$bAmsterdam :$cElsevier Science & Technology,$d2007.$nMode of access: World Wide Web.$nSystem requirements: Web browser.$nTitle from title screen (viewed on July 25, 2007).$nAccess may be restricted to users at subscribing institutions 650 0$aCorrosion and anti-corrosives 655 7$aElectronic books.$2local 710 2 $aInstitution of Chemical Engineers (Great Britain) 776 1 $cOriginal$z0750659246$z9780750659246$w(OCoLC)71348254 856 40$3Referex$uhttp://www.sciencedirect.com/science/book/9780750659246$zAn electronic book accessible through the World Wide Web; click for information 907 $a.b13653489$b03-03-22$c24-01-08 912 $a991003238189707536 996 $aPrinciples of corrosion engineering and corrosion control$91212906 997 $aUNISALENTO 998 $ale026$b24-01-08$cm$d@ $e-$feng$gmau$h0$i0
