Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reviews the factors affecting metal dusting and how it can be prevented in sectors such as the chemical and petrochemical industries and in the direct reduction of iron ores. It also considers the related corrosion phenomena of carburization and nitridation. Topics include: key processes involved in metal dusting; how this corrosion process affects a range of metals such as iron and steel, as well as nickel-based and chromium-based high-temperature alloys; effects of particular gas mixtures on the corrosion process and on the use of coatings to prevent metal dusting; processes involved in carburization and nitridation. --

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hardbound. The phenomenon of time-dependent plastic deformation of metallic materials under constant load at high temperatures has been documented for at least two centuries and is now termed high temperature creep. A better understanding of creep behaviour of metals and alloys is highly desirable, not only for predictions and thus more efficient exploitation of contemporary creep-resistant metallic materials, but also such an understanding may be of great help in designing new materials and their thermal and mechanical treatment.The aim of this monograph is to provide a comprehensive review of the current status of knowledge of mechanisms of high temperature creep, creep damage and creep fracture in metals and alloys. In the introductory chapters 1-6, the time dependence of creep strain, mechanical equation of state, dislocation motion in creep and dependence of creep rate on temperature, stress and some structure parameters are treated in a traditio

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has long been a need for effective methods of measuring corrosion within light water nuclear reactors. This important volume discusses key issues surrounding the development of high temperature reference electrodes and other electrochemical techniques. The book is divided into three parts with part one reviewing the latest developments in the use of reference electrode technology in both pressurised water and boiling water reactors. Parts two and three cover different types of corrosion and tribocorrosion and ways they can be measured using such techniques as electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Topics covered across the book include in-pile testing, modelling techniques and the tribocorrosion behaviour of stainless steel under reactor conditions. Electrochemistry in light water reactors is a valuable reference for all those concerned with corrosion problems in this key technology for the power industry.
