Full Description
"Corrosion of High-Performance Ceramics" is a comprehensive survey of the current state of this new field of research. It presents a generalized description of the corrosion of engineering ceramics and its effect on their mechanical properties (based on Si3N4, SiC, A1N, B4C, BN, A12O3, ZrO2). The book provides researchers, engineers and graduate students with a guide to the performance of non-oxide and oxide ceramics in corrosive environments. Some useful keywords to be found in the text are : high-temperature oxidation; hot corrosion; corrosion in acids, alkalis and molten salts; effects of corrosion on the physico-mechanical properties of ceramics; stress corrosion; corrosion protection; development of oxidation-resistant ceramics; role of purity, donations and microstructure.
