Book addresses rubber used as corrosion protection

ERJ staff report (DS)

Dublin, Ireland -- John Wiley and Sons Ltd has published a new book titled, Rubber as a Construction Material for Corrosion Protection: A Comprehensive Guide for Process Equipment Designers. The 297-page book was first published in June 2010 and is available for a price of around Euro 115, depending on delivery options.

The publishers say, "Despite the long history of rubber as a construction material, this book is a unique publication as it comprehensively looks at the material in respect to the anti-corrosion requirements of the multitude of industries where rubber is used, both on land and off shore. This guide documents how rubber reliably meets the threats of corrosion and contributes to the longevity of the equipment. Chapters on ebonite, natural, and synthetic rubbers, examine their relevant properties and chemical resistance."
