Tab Article
This book deals with the different forms of corrosion for copper and its alloys. It provides previously unpublished or hard-to-find data, providing a unique reference point for data on the corrosion of copper alloys. The book's chapters cover the following topics:
- Copper alloys (composition and properties)
- Film formation and properties
- General corrosion
- Various types of localized corrosion, such as pitting, erosion corrosion, dealloying, and corrosion fatigue
- Galvanic corrosion
- Specific environments, including underground corrosion, atmospheric corrosion, and corrosion in waters
- Joining: corrosion of soldered, brazed, and welded joints
This book is packed with more than 100 photos, along with numerous tables and graphs. It will appeal to engineers who need or want to use copper alloys and need data on the potential corrosion problems and, specifically, how to avoid them.
