Plastics as Corrosion-Resistant Materials presents the properties and applications of corrosion-resistant plastics. The book serves as a source of information for people who are looking for practical solutions with their corrosion problems. The book focuses on plastic materials and proven anti-corrosion methods with the use of plastics. It starts by discussing the general properties and applications of plastics. Fabrication of equipments and structures using one or a combination of plastic bases; and use and assembly of plastic pipes and fittings, linings, and coatings are covered as well. Engineers, technicians, plumbers, carpenters, homeowners, and hobbyists will find this book of considerable value.

This book covers piping, buried pipe, duct systems, recommendations for fire safety and smoke, abrasion resistance of fiberglass reinforced plastic (FRP), mechanism of FRP corrosion and deterioration, grounding of FRP systems, and popular fabrication methods of FRP.

A study of the physical, mechanical and corrosion resistant properties of all the most common commercially available plastics and elastomers. It offers examples of typical applications and describes methods of joining. The physical, mechanical and corrosion resistant properties of 32 thermoplastics, 20 thermosets, and 27 elastomers are provided. There are more than 300 tables and chemical structures.
