With the annual cost of corrosion of cars and trucks in the U.S.A. alone estimated at $55 billion, corrosion protection is a major problem for materials engineers and designers to which a satisfactory solution is still being sought. Even the use of aluminium which is fairly corrosion resistant involves coating problems when it is alloyed to provide the strength required in many industrial applications. The book contains the ten papers presented at a Symposium in the 1978 American Society for Metals Materials and Processing Congress organized by the Cleaning, Finishing and Coating Division. The subject matter is limited to papers relating to zinc and aluminium substrates and their top coatings and provides a state-of-the-art review of research, development and application of corrosion prevention coatings in specific fields. The volume was produced from camera-ready copy and the quality of reproduction varies, some illustrations being of poor quality. It is expected that subsequent efforts by the Division will include a wider range of organic and inorganic coating systems. The contents
are as follows.
