Description:

This is an expanded edition of a classic work by the late Mars G. Fontana. It uniquely presents corrosion data in terms of corrosives or environments rather than in terms of materials. Isocorrosion charts, created by Fontana, provide a quick look at candidates for a particular corrosive. It includes case histories on eight forms of corrosion and new sections on nuclear waste, solar energy, and geothermal energy and discusses corrosion principles and applications, forms of corrosion and corrosion testing.
