Synopsis

Proceedings Of A Special Session As Part Of The 4th European Ceramics Society Conference, Riccione, Italy, 2 6 October, 1995

The study of oxidation and corrosion resistance continues to play a vital role in the development of advanced ceramics. A knowledge of both the mechanisms governing the corrosion processes and the rate of degradation under conditions of use are required in order to permit judicious materials selection. While understanding corrosion mechanisms is one of the foundations upon which any material is developed and used, increased emphasis has been placed recently on the manner by which performance data is obtained. Hence, the rise of prenormative research and the formulation of testing standards, not only for direct industrial application, but also to promote better untilization of the results of costly materials research. The contents include: review papers, oxidation, high-temperature (gaseous) corrosion, liquid metal corrosion and low-temperature (aqueous) corrosion.
