Yullig Corrosion Manual (Original 2nd Edition)

Author: (Canada) Winston
Publisher:
Publication Date: 2005-08-01
Features: Since the publication of the "Corrosion Handbook" edited by Herbert Uhlig in 1948, corrosion-resistant non-metallic materials have been developed; the understanding of corrosion processes has been improved; methods and techniques for corrosion protection have been advanced; and methods for collecting and analyzing corrosion data have been refined. Additionally, to ensure cost efficiency, reliability, and safety, the application of corrosion data in economic and risk analysis, life prediction, and decision-making has been increasing. All these developments and trends are fully reflected in this handbook.
The editor, R. Winston Revie, "Corrosion Handbook" has served generations of corrosion engineers and continues to be a trusted resource in the personal libraries of many engineers worldwide, over half a century after its first publication. The new "Uhlig Corrosion Handbook" will serve future generations of designers, inspectors, owners, and operators of all types of engineering systems (many of which are still unknown today). Dr. Revie, like his mentor in 1948, has successfully provided a convenient reference book covering the entire field of corrosion.
The corrosion laboratory at MIT, H.H. Uhlig Corrosion Laboratory, R.M. Latanision defines corrosion as the degradation of materials due to environmental effects. This handbook is a convenient reference book covering the entire field of corrosion, effectively consolidating materials widely scattered in scientific and engineering literature. The book consists of 70 chapters divided into 6 parts, including the fundamentals of corrosion science and engineering, the corrosion characteristics and protection measures of various non-metals and metals, various corrosion resistance evaluation, life prediction, and testing methods, as well as discussions on corrosion-related issues involving high-level radioactive waste.
Additionally, the book includes a glossary to help readers understand the relevant technical terms in the field of corrosion more accurately. This book is suitable for researchers and engineering technicians in the field of corrosion, as well as professionals in material research and construction.
