Summary
  • Corrosion of Stainless Steels, Second Edition describes the current understanding of corrosion resistance of stainless steels and emphasizes the role of metallurgical factors in creating this resistance. A thorough introduction to the selection, development, and production of stainless steels, it clarifies numerous issues and provides an interdisciplinary treatment that combines metallurgy, chemistry, and electrochemistry.
  • This remarkably well-crafted Second Edition integrates the metallurgy and corrosion behavior of stainless steels and encourages corrosion control through a combination of metallurgy and materials selection. It identifies areas where further research is needed, provides detailed background for research projects, and reduces the need for literature searches.
  • Here is the authoritative stainless-steel text and resource guide for scientists, engineers, corrosion technologists, corrosion consultants, failure analysts, expert witnesses, and graduate students in electrochemistry, materials science, and chemical and mechanical engineering.
