Description: Compiles experimental approaches from more than a decade of course lectures and laboratory work to predict the performance of materials and corrosion mitigation techniques and assess the accuracy of corrosion monitoring strategies.Electrochemical Techniques in Corrosion Science and Engineering describesthe origin, use, and limitations of electrochemical phase diagramsnumerous testing schemes for active, passive, and localized corrosionthe development and electrochemical characterization of passivitymethods in process alteration, failure prediction, and materials selectionand offers useful guidelines to assess the efficacy of corrosion inhibitors and coatings for metals and alloysdevelop effective corrosion prediction modelscalculate the corrosion rates of various materialsdetermine the resistance of alloys to pitting and crevice corrosionconsider current and potential distribution effects on corrosionConsidering the effect of environmental and processing conditions on material degradation, Electrochemical Techniques in Corrosion Science and Engineering is an excellent source for mechanical, corrosion, maintenance, metallurgical, materials, chemical, aerospace, manufacturing, industrial, nuclear, plant, project, construction, industrial, civil, environmental, design, process, and product development engineers; materials scientists; surface chemists; applied physicists; architects; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines.
