This paperback issue of the 2007 hardcover version within the “Corrosion Engineering Handbook” series presents various materials and methods for controlling and protecting against corrosion instead of using expensive alloys to construct a tank or processing vessel.
This book is a very comprehensive collection of the current knowledge about applied linings and coatings. So, it fulfills its intension, “that regardless of what is being built, … information for … whoever is responsible for the selection of material of construction will be found in this book to enable them to avoid unnecessary loss of material through corrosion”, to a very large extent.
This book introduces to aspects to be considered when dealing with coatings and linings. Philip A. Schweitzer covers and compares a variety of specific coatings and their applications. In 18 chapters he divided the content into two main parts: linings and coatings.
All professionals involved in design and maintenance processes get by this book a compact survey of necessary considerations which needs to be done when applying surface protection measures. The literature references at the end of some chapters support the readers finding additional information about the special topic, mainly written by the author himself. Since this newly issued paperback edition is a 1:1 re‐print of the 2001 hardcover version, neither current publications are referenced, nor revisions were made.
This book by Scrivener Publishing contains 14 chapters written by 82 leading scientists, experienced in the field of coatings. They demonstrate mechanisms, usage and manipulation of cutting‐edge coating methods. Each chapter is well structured and ends with a conclusion, highlighting the content. The book is divided into 3 parts: “Materials and Methods”, “Coating Materials Nanotechnology” and “Advanced Coating Technology and Applications”.
Finally, this book provides a comprehensive insight into innovative research in advanced coating materials and state‐of‐the‐art technologies, without being a real textbook. It fulfills its intension of being beneficial both for technicians and scientists.
This book grew out of a course on polymer coatings held by the author at the university. It shall serve as an introduction to the wide field of polymer coatings. It is not intended to cover completely all facts on polymer coatings.
All chapters are well structured. Selected figures and formulas illustrate the content and contribute to a good understandability. At the end of each chapter some hints for further reading are provided.
Finally, the book fulfills its intention to introduce into the topic by providing basics on science and technology of polymer coatings, suitable for chemists in industry, materials scientists, polymer chemists and physical chemists.
This book provides a state‐of‐the‐art overview on the processing, characterization, and modelling of metallic and ceramic materials used for energy and environmental applications. 17 scientists show a collection of current knowledge in 8 chapters.
This book fulfills its intention to provide a reference book containing a collection of publications on thin films and coatings made of ceramic and metals used for energy and environmental applications. It covers a broad range of this topic and provides a comprehensive insight. Graduate and undergraduate students of materials science and mechanical engineering can find an overview on this topic to step in this interesting field of engineering.
All in all, practicing professionals as well as researchers can read this book with pleasure and great benefit. It presents a comprehensive collection of data and practical examples manifested in about 100 graphs, 80 schemes of processes and devices, a manifold of images showing the microstructure of alloys or details of components and several phase diagrams. Tables containing data on commercially available coatings, alloys, compositions of corrosive salts, function of constituents of coatings add further important pieces of information. Thus, this book is a valuable source of information for anyone engaged in work with or research on high temperature coatings.
Finally it can be summarized that this book fulfills its intention of providing theoretical background and examples for practical applications of coatings used for corrosion protection.
It can be recommended to those being interested in coatings, serving as an overview on aspects which needs to be considered when working with such systems.
