Book Corrosion and Protection of Magnesium Alloys

Download or read book Corrosion and Protection of Magnesium Alloys written by Liang Wu and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-02-16 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magnesium (Mg) alloys, possessing good thermal and electrical conductivity, low density, recyclability, high specific strength, and excellent damping capacity, are regarded as one of the most promising light metallic materials. Mg alloys are also known as the “inexhaustible green light engineering material” compared with steel, aluminum, copper, and engineering plastics, providing some important applications in communications, automotive, defense, aerospace, and biomedical industries. However, the low electrode potential causes poor corrosion resistance in the environment of moist air, sulfur, and marine atmosphere. And thus, the corrosion and protection technology of Mg and its alloys is listed as an important research topic in this field. In this Research Topic, the latest research papers on corrosion and protection of Mg and its alloys are collected to provide a platform for researchers and readers to understand the recent developments in this field. Good use of this platform could improve the international research level in corrosion and protection of Mg and its alloys and promote the “green, safe, life-extending and smart” anti-corrosion technology and expand the application range of Mg and its alloys. High-quality Original Research and Review articles in this field are all welcome for submission to this Research Topic. Research interests include but are not limited to the following areas: • Corrosion behaviors and mechanisms • Surface treatment technology • Biodegradable medical applications • High-temperature oxidation • Inhibitors for Mg and its alloys • New monitoring, evaluation, simulation, and prediction methods

Book Reuse of Materials and Byproducts in Construction

Download or read book Reuse of Materials and Byproducts in Construction written by Alan Richardson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction industry is the largest single waste producing industry in the UK. Ensuring a supply chain of recycled materials affords many potential gains, achieved through: reducing the material volume transported to already over-burdened landfill sites, possible cost reductions to the contractor/client when considering the landfill tax saved and the potential for lower cost material replacements, a reduction in the environmental impact of quarrying and the saving of depleting natural material resources. Reuse of Materials and Byproducts in Construction: Waste Minimization and Recycling addresses use of waste and by products in the construction industry. An over view of new “green” design guides to encourage best practice will be examined and current legislation that channels on site practices, such as site waste management plans. Fundamental individual construction materials are discussed and the process of reforming by products and waste products into new construction materials is investigated, examining the material performance, energy required to convert waste into new products and viability of recycling. The main range of constructional materials will be examined. Aimed at postgraduate students, lecturers and researchers in construction and civil engineering, the book will also be of interest to professional design practices.
