| Aim: To obtain a general knowledge of degradation of metals and polymers. Typical forms of corrosion and environmental factors affecting these forms of degradation is identified. Selection of the appropiate material or protection method should be made taking influences of chemical and mechanical parameters into consideration. |
Contents: Part 1 on metals: Electrochemical equilibrium and kinetics. Pourbaix diagrams. Passivity. Cathode processes. Forms of corrosion. Specific environments. Corrosion test, evaluation and monitoring. Corrosion protection, including use of stainless steel, cathodic protection, change of environment and surface technology.
Part 2 on polymers: Degradation of polymers. Solubility. The group contribution principle. Chemical, biochemical and thermal degradation of polymers. |
