"Corrosion of High-Performance Ceramics" is a comprehensive survey
of the state of the art of this new field of research. It presents
the first generalized description of the corrosion of engineering
ceramics and its effect on their mechanical properties (based on
Si3N4, SiC, AlN, B4C, BN, Al2O3, ZrO2). Researchers, engineers and
graduate students are provided with a guide to the performance of
non-oxide and oxide ceramicsin corrosive environments. Keywords:
high-temperature oxidation; hot corrosion; corrosion in acids,
alkalis and molten salts; effects of corrosion on the
physico-mechanical properties of ceramics; stress corrosion;
corrosion protection; development of oxidation-resistant ceramics;
role of purity, donations and microstructure.
