eBook 9: Corrosion: Advanced Materials and Test Methods

Corrosion is a natural process consisting of the chemical, biochemical, or electrochemical reaction between a given material and its environment, producing a deterioration of the material and its functional properties. Because of this, corrosion is one of the most common ways that a material fails. Today, the demands on materials’ corrosion resistance are increasing to improve operational reliability and extend product life.

This eBook highlights recent studies on the design of alloys and the analysis of their corrosion behavior.
