Corrosion Handbook:
Corrosive Agents and Their Interaction with Materials
Volume 1: Sodium Hydroxide, Mixed Acids • Second Edition
edited by G. Kreysa
M. Schütze

The DECHEMA Corrosion Handbook provides a comprehensive collection of knowledge which is unique both in scope as well as content. Corrosion data and the chemical resistance of all technically important metallic, non-metallic, inorganic and organic materials in contact with aggressive media are covered, constituting the prime information source worldwide for the selection of materials for equipment in which corrosive media are handled or processed. Furthermore, methods of corrosion protection and prevention are also described.

The influence of sodium hydroxide on some 450 materials and the effect of mixed acids on some 700 constitute the contents of Volume 1.

More than 600 references to primary sources, 200 figures and 250 tables arranged by agents/environment represent the most detailed corrosion data available.
