Posted on: Friday, 4 April 2008, 06:00 CDT

Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c87672) has announced the addition of "Developments In High Temperature Corrosion And Protection Of Materials" to their offering.

Describes the latest developments in understanding high temperature corrosion

Presents the latest research by the leading innovators from around the globe

Case studies are provided to illustrate key points

High temperature corrosion is a phenomenon that occurs in components that operate at very high temperatures, such as gas turbines, jet engines and industrial plants. Engineers are constantly striving to understand and prevent this type of corrosion. This book examines the latest developments in the understanding of high temperature corrosion processes and protective oxide scales and coatings.
