ISBN: 9798194239344 - corrosion science & engineering: materials, prevention & modern asset integrity (6 risultati)

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Corrosion does not fail an asset on the day the appears. It works quietly at the boundary between a material and its environment, and by the time the consequence is visible - a weeping flange, a cracked weld, an unplanned shutdown - the decisions that allowed it were taken years earlier, in a materials specification, a coating schedule, or an inspection interval nobody questioned.That is the difficulty facing most who deal with corrosion. The knowledge exists, but it arrives in fragments: an electrochemistry chapter here, a product brochure there, a code clause that says what to do without explaining why. Practitioners are still expected to select alloys for aggressive service, judge whether a cathodic protection system is protecting, interpret an inspection report and defend a corrosion budget - with no single source connecting the science to the decision in front of them.This comprehensive twenty-chapter reference was written to close that gap. It builds a complete working command of corrosion, from the electrochemical and thermodynamic reasons metals corrode at all, through every major form of attack and the mechanism behind it, to the modern, data-driven practice of keeping aging assets safe and in service. Read it straight through as a full education, or open it at a single chapter when a specific answer is needed.Inside this book you willUnderstand corrosion cells, polarization behavior, potential-pH maps and passivity well enough to read laboratory data and monitoring output with judgment rather than trust.Diagnose uniform, galvanic, pitting, crevice, intergranular, dealloying, erosion and cracking damage from its appearance, environment and metallurgy.Apply the prevention disciplines with confidence: materials selection, surface preparation and coatings, cathodic and anodic protection, inhibitor programs, and corrosion-resistant design.Work through the environments where corrosion costs most: oil, gas and petrochemical service; water systems, power generation and infrastructure; atmospheric, marine and buried exposure; and high-temperature oxidation and hot corrosion.Plan and defend inspection using risk-based principles, corrosion-rate data, remaining-life estimation, non-destructive techniques and structured failure analysis.Compare options on lifecycle cost rather than purchase price, and place standards, codes and professional certification in their proper context.Key topics: electrochemical thermodynamics and kinetics; corrosion-rate measurement; the metallurgy of carbon steels, stainless steels, nickel, copper, aluminum and titanium alloys; stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen damage; erosion-corrosion and cavitation; coatings, linings and surface treatments; cathodic protection design; corrosion inhibitors; risk-based inspection; and asset integrity management.The apparatus is built for long-term use: figures that make abstract ideas concrete, case studies from real operating experience, key-concept and industry-alert boxes, more than 750 multiple-choice review questions with answers and full rationales, and appendices giving a standards quick reference, a galvanic series in seawater, conversion factors and corrosion formulas, a glossary and an abbreviation list.Who it is for: materials and corrosion engineers, mechanical, civil and chemical engineers whose designs must survive decades in aggressive service, asset-integrity and reliability professionals, inspectors and coating specialists, graduate and advanced undergraduate students, and candidates preparing for professional certification examinations.Add this working reference to your shelf and begin making corrosion decisions from understanding rather than guesswork.
