Resources for a corrosion beginner

Corrosion is a complex subject. It is difficult to pick and choose the starting point. It is very easy to spiral into a confused state of mind if the right resources are not available.

Hence, I write this blog post to list out a few books which are great if you are a corrosion enthusiast.

Here goes -

1. Corrosion Engineering by Mars. G Fontana
        I love this book and I always refer to it for my work.

2. Peabody's control of pipeline corrosion - 

3. Corrosion engineering - Principles and practice - Pierre Roberge


The website www.corrosion-doctors.org has a more extensive list of corrosion articles.

Other than that, there are online corrosion magazines which you can access -

1. Materials performance -  www.materialsperformance.com

2. corrosionpedia.com

3. CORROSION journal meridian.allenpress.com/corrosion -  it has a few open access articles.


Check out these resources as a starting point!
