(The ECS Series of Texts and Monographs) 1st Edition
by Christopher D. Taylor (Editor), Philippe Marcus (Editor)
Presents opportunities for making significant improvements in preventing harmful effects that can be caused by corrosion
- Describes concepts of molecular modeling in the context of materials corrosion
- Includes recent examples of applications of molecular modeling to corrosion phenomena throughout the text
- Details
how molecular modeling can give insights into the multitude of
interconnected and complex processes that comprise the corrosion of
metals
- Covered applications include diffusion and electron
transfer at metal/electrolyte interfaces, Monte Carlo simulations of
corrosion, corrosion inhibition, interrogating surface chemistry, and
properties of passive films
- Presents current challenges and likely developments in this field for the future
