Corrosion of Weldments

Editor: J. R. Davis

Welding is one of the most important processes in the manufacturing of metallic structures. However, the relationship between welding metallurgy and corrosion is crucial for ensuring the longevity and reliability of these structures. This book, edited by J. R. Davis, thoroughly addresses the corrosion of welded joints.

Content of the Book:

Hydrogen-Induced Cracking: Cracks that occur in steel welded joints due to the effects of hydrogen.

Sensitization and Intergranular Corrosion: Types of corrosion resulting from sensitization in stainless steel welded joints.

Sulfur Stress Cracking: A critical issue seen in steel welded joints used in pipelines.

Microbiologically Induced Corrosion: Types of corrosion triggered by microorganisms in welded joints.

Stress Corrosion Cracking: Cracks caused by stress corrosion in welded joints of various alloys.

Materials Covered:

The book extensively covers ferrous materials, including carbon steels and stainless steels.

It also provides a comprehensive analysis of non-ferrous metals, such as high-nickel alloys, aluminum alloys, and titanium alloys.

Industrial Applications and Testing:

 

The book also explores the impact of welding corrosion in various industries, the methods used for monitoring and testing this corrosion.
