Corrosion EngineeringPrinciples and Solved Problems\nAuthor(s): Branko N. Popov\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: Elsevier Science & Technology, United Kingdom\nImprint: Elsevier Science Ltd\nISBN-13: 9780444627223, 978-0444627223\nSynopsis\nCorrosion Engineering: Principles and Solved Problems covers corrosion engineering through an extensive theoretical description of the principles of corrosion theory, passivity and corrosion prevention strategies and design of corrosion protection systems. The book is updated with results published in papers and reviews in the last twenty years. Solved corrosion case studies, corrosion analysis and solved corrosion problems in the book are presented to help the reader to understand the corrosion fundamental principles from thermodynamics and electrochemical kinetics, the mechanism that triggers the corrosion processes at the metal interface and how to control or inhibit the corrosion rates. The book covers the multidisciplinary nature of corrosio.
