Offers in-depth discussions of the latest advances in corrosion science and corrosion protection--providing key information necessary to understand and solve corrosion problems. Bridging the gap between fundamental theory and day-to-day industrial problems, this book presents basic corrosion phenomena, including adsorption, anodic dissolution, passivation, passivity breakdown and localized corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. Gives a detailed view of the surface reactions governing corrosion, explores the link between microscopic features and macroscopic behavior, and analyzes the role of surface reactions in the corrosion of metallic materials.
