Corrosion and particle erosion at high temperatures

Abstract

The contents of this book are arranged into four topics: high temperature corrosion, synergism between oxidation/corrosion and particle erosion, oxidation and scale adherence, and surface modifications and coatings. The authors present information on the effects of alloying additions, such as Nb, Mo and reactive elements on corrosion. The recent result of the sulfur effect on the scale adherence is discussed along with that of reactive elements. The metallurgical factors, environmental parameters and the improved measurement techniques in corrosion/oxidation/erosion conditions are discussed in several papers. This book also includes papers on the oxidation/corrosion of an advanced metal matrix composite and ion-implanted monolithic alloys.
