Download Corrosion Behaviour and Protection of Copper and Aluminium Alloys in Seawater Ebook PDF

Copper and aluminium alloys are widely used in marine engineering in areas such as pipelines, storage tanks, ships’ hulls and cladding for offshore structures. This important book reviews key factors affecting the corrosion and service life of these materials in the marine environment. The book is divided into five parts, with part one reviewing key aspects of the corrosion behaviour of both these alloys. Part two discusses the use of copper and copper-nickel alloys in seawater, whilst Parts 3 and 4 cover aluminium bronzes and alloys. The final section of the book covers the use of aluminium-based materials as anodes for the cathodic protection of marine structures. Corrosion behaviour and protection of copper and aluminium alloys in seawater is an important reference for marine engineers concerned with the corrosion and service life of these materials. Reviews key factors affecting the corrosion and service life of copper and aluminium alloys Discusses the use of the alloys in seawater

Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.

Contributed articles on science and technology.

1. Each volume of the series informs about the corrosion characteristics of materials, both important and frequently used. 2. Possibilities for the prevention and cure of corrosion are described. 3. The series provides extensive and up-to-date information on the subject of corrosion. 4. The volumes are conceived for practical use; numerous tables and illustrations provide a lot of data, each chapter is heavily referenced. 5. Each chapter is systematically organized; hence the reader can find the information he is looking for easily and quickly
