This invaluable reference provides a comprehensive overview of corrosion and environmental effects on metals, intermetallics, glossy metals, ceramics and composites of metals, and ceramics and polymer materials. It surveys numerous options for various applications involving environments and guidance in materials selection and substitution. Exploring a wide range of environments, including aqueous and high-temperature surroundings, Environmental Effects on Engineered Materials examines specific material-environmental interactions; corrosion rates and material limitations; preventive measurements against corrosion; utilization of older materials in recent applications; the use of new materials for existing equipment; and more. Booknews Attempting an overview of environmental effects and corrosion on new materials, composites, and coatings, Jones (Pacific Northwest National Laboratory) presents 15 chapters that cover metallic alloys, intermetallic alloys, ceramics, composites, and metallic glasses. The volume covers the reaction of materials in aqueous and high temperature environments and offers guidance on materials selection and substitution. Other topics discussed include corrosion rates and material limitations, preventive measures against corrosion, utilization of older materials in recent applications, and use of new materials for existing equipment.
