High-Temperature Oxidation and Corrosion 2010
Description:
Energy/environmental issues are of increasing importance these days, and improvement of the efficiency of energy conversion inevitably requires materials to be exposed to high temperatures and high pressures in aggressive environments. The present 80 peer-reviewed papers discuss the future prospects for solving materials issues involving elevated temperatures.

Review from Ringgold Inc., ProtoView:
Maruyama (Tokyo Institute of Technology) presents about 120 peer-reviewed papers from a November 2010 symposium. Contributors seek answers to problems related to using materials at the high temperatures and high pressures found with today's energy conversion methods. The book begins with two plenary lectures on predicting internal oxidation and a compatible coating system. Later sections cover fundamentals, mechanical properties, high-temperature corrosion in aggressive environments, protective coatings, and high-temperature corrosion of intermetallics and ceramics. Some specific subjects examined include high-temperature service experience and failure analysis of heat-resistant stainless steels, scale deformation and failure in hot rolling, mechanical adhesion and pickling behavior of thermal oxide scales on hot-rolled low carbon steel strips, and fireside corrosion of austenitic tube materials for advanced USC alloys. Other areas addressed include silicon-based coating for high-temperature protection of metallic alloys, cross-section TEM characterization of re-based diffusion barriers on Nb substrates, and the influence of Zr addition of the oxidation behavior of TiAl-based alloys.
