Introduction to the High-Temperature Oxidation of Metals

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

A straightforward treatment describing the oxidation processes of metals and alloys at elevated temperatures. This 2006 second edition retains the fundamental theory and applies it to reactions in mixed environments and protective techniques. This book is a comprehensive guide to material scientists and engineers requiring an understanding of this elementary process.
