      Corrosion: Aqueous Processes and Passive Films deals with the aqueous corrosion of passive films. Pitting and stress corrosion are discussed at length, along with repassivation kinetics and the corrosion resistance of amorphous (or glassy) alloys. The corrosion of anodized films and dental alloys are also considered. Comprised of seven chapters, this volume begins with a discussion on pitting corrosion and three types of pitting, namely, electrochemical depassivation, chemical depassivation, and etch pitting. The reader is then introduced to the theoretical aspects of the corrosion of glassy alloys as well as their resistance to uniform corrosion; localized corrosion; stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement; and applications of corrosion-resistant glassy alloys. Subsequent chapters explore stress corrosion cracking; repassivation kinetics; the nature of anodic films on aluminum, with emphasis on the anodic polarization of aluminum in appropriate solutions; and the corrosion of dental materials. The book concludes by evaluating the use of alternating current techniques in the study of corrosion and passivity. This monograph will be of interest to engineers, metallurgists, and materials scientists.
