The History of NACE International - The Worldwide Corrosion Authority - 1943-2018

This is a print-on-demand (POD) book that will be produced just for you in 2-5 days after your order. It should arrive at your door in about one to two weeks. However, due to supply chain and logistic challenges currently affecting the industry, it may take longer. Allow three weeks for international orders.

From its beginning as a small group of engineers focused on cathodic protection to address metal pipeline degradation, NACE (now AMPP) has evolved into a worldwide organization that is involved in every industry and area of corrosion prevention and control, from chemical processing and water systems to transportation and infrastructure protection.

NACE (now AMPP) is involved in corrosion prevention and control in every industry. At the time that NACE was established, however, the organization was focused on the field of cathodic protection (CP) for pipelines. It has since expanded its focus to other corrosion problems.

In commemoration of NACE International’s 75th anniversary, the NACE Past Presidents Council (PPC)  released The History of NACE International—The Worldwide Corrosion Authority, 1943-2018, 75 Years of Progress. This history was developed by researching about 35,000 pages of Board agendas, minutes, and attachments; and more than 1,000 issues of CORROSION and Materials Performance. maintaining CP systems.

From its beginning as a small group of engineers focused on CP to address metal pipeline degradation, NACE evolved into a worldwide organization that is involved in every industry and area of corrosion prevention and control, from chemical processing and water systems to transportation and infrastructure protection. This book provides a history of what is now the world’s largest technical society dedicated to the mitigation and control of corrosion.

The Second Edition of this classic reference book adds updated commentary and many new case studies. Mechanisms and numerous scenarios illustrate general, localized and galvanic corrosion, environmental cracking, erosion-corrosion, cavitation, fretting, intergranular attack, dealloying, and high-temperature corrosion.

The purpose of this book is to introduce the eight forms of corrosion and illustrate the forms’ macro- and microappearances as they occur in conventional engineering metals and alloys. Diagrams are occasionally employed to illustrate mechanisms, but photographs and photomicrographs are employed whenever possible, together with case histories, to aid understanding of the situations discussed and the means taken to ameliorate them.

This book presents detailed corrosion mechanisms and case histories of a wide variety of corrosion problems from chemical plants, oil production and refining, utilities, pipelines, transport by air, land, and sea, electronics, and the preservation of historical artifacts. The uses of advanced analytical techniques such as electron microscopy, metallography, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Aüger spectroscopy and electrochemical techniques are presented to illustrate their utility in corrosion failure investigations.
