Corrosion, Processes and Advanced Materials in Industry

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView: This volume concentrates on technical aspects of corrosion and the use of advanced materials for creating anti-corrosives. But you get a peek into what motivates these researchers by reading the passionate opening outlining an annual cost of 1.8 trillion a year to corrosion damage. Edited by Eliezer (Sami Shamoon College of Engineering), it focuses as expected on corrosion in concrete and other surfaces, but it also treats the special case of corrosion of biomaterials and has a large section on the particular threat to magnesium alloys. Contains brief keyword and author indexes.
