Guidelines for Methods of Testing and Research in High Temperature Corrosion - Prepared by the Working Party on Corrosion by Hot Gases and Combustion Products

High temperature oxidation and corrosion cause great problems in power plants, petrochemical and chemical industries and in engines, and yet no standards exist for material testing for high temperature corrosion. The information and advice in this book make it a milestone on the way to codes of practice and standards.
