Corrosion of Aluminum and Aluminum Alloys (#06787G)

This handbook presents comprehensive coverage of the corrosion behavior of aluminum and aluminum alloys, with emphasis on practical information about how to select and process these materials in order to prevent corrosion attack. Described are the characteristics of these materials and the influences of composition, mechanical working, heat treatment, joining methods, microstructure, and environmental variables on their corrosion. Designed for use by practicing engineers, and maintenance and operating personnel, who are concerned with the problem of corrosion of aluminum in their daily job functions.
