Industry pays an enormous price for material degradation. The
Handbook of Environmental Degradation of Materials outlines these
costs, but more importantly, explains how to measure, analyze, and
prevent environmental degradation for a wide range of industrial
materials. Experts from around the world share how a diverse set of
industries cope with the degradation of metals, polymers,
reinforced concrete, clothing, and wood under adverse environmental
conditions such as weather, seawater, and fire. Case studies show
how organizations from small consulting firms to corporate giants
design and manufacture products that are more resistant to
environmental effects. By implementing these standards companies of
all sizes should realize savings beneficial to their operations.
