Description

This book details the many forms of weld corrosion and the methods used to minimize weld corrosion. Chapters on specific alloy group Carbon and alloy steels, stainless steel, high-nickel alloys, and nonferrous alloys describe both general welding characteristics and the metallurgical factors that influence corrosion behavior. Corrosion problems associated with dissimilar metal weldments are also examined.Case histories document corrosion problems unique to specific industries including oil and gas, chemical processing, pulp and paper, and electric power. Special challenges caused by high-temperature environments are discussed. Commonly used methods to monitor weld corrosion and test methods for evaluation of intergranular, pitting, crevice, stress-corrosion cracking, and other forms of corrosion are also reviewed.
