ASM Handbook Corrosion Materials

Volume 13B, Corrosion: Materials joins volume 13A, Corrosion: Fundamentals, Testing, and Protection (2003) in providing a scope of information from practical to material selection to the fundamental electrochemical nature of the kinetics and dynamics of corrosion. Material developments and advances in the study of corrosion since the landmark Metals Handbook, Volume 13A, Corrosion (1987) have driven the development of materials and the selection and application of materials for corrosion resistance. This 700-page ASM Handbook is comprised of 48 peer-reviewed articles on how metals and nonmetals are effected by various elements. The major areas covered include ferrous and nonferrous metals: processed materials, including thermal spray coatings, electroplated materials, and clad metals; special products, including amorphous materials, intermetallics, and metal matrix composites; and nonmetallics, including ceramics, concrete, coatings, composites, and elastomers. It also includes an article on the global cost of corrosion and full-color gallery of corrosion damage.Cramer, Stephen D. is the author of 'ASM Handbook Corrosion Materials' with ISBN 9780871707079 and ISBN 0871707071.
