Porter Frank C. Corrosion Resistance of Zinc and Zinc Alloys

Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York, 1994, VI, 523 p. — ISBN: 0-8247-9213-0 (acid-free paper).A cornerstone reference in the field, this work analyzes available information on the corrosion resistance of zinc and its alloys both as solid materials and as coatings on steel, detailing the corrosion resistance of zinc in atmospheric, aqueous, underground and chemical environments. Corrosion Resistance of Zinc and Zinc Alloys illustrates the numerous benefits of zinc and duplex coatings and presents practical case histories of their use.Contents
