Atlas of Electrochemical Equilibria in Aqueous Solutions

Pourbaix, Marcel·1974

Abstract

Marcel Pourbaix’s monumental work Atlas of Electrochemical Equilibria in Aqueous Solutions remains the definitive reference for understanding corrosion and passivation in metallic systems. Despite being nearly six decades old, it remains one of the most respected and enduring references in corrosion science and is still cited in AMPP, ISO, and ASTM standards. This title is the seminal work on the thermodynamic foundations of corrosion and metal stability in aqueous environments. It introduced the now-iconic Pourbaix diagrams—potential–pH (E–pH) diagrams—that map out the regions of immunity, passivation, and corrosion for metals and alloys. These diagrams remain indispensable for understanding and predicting corrosion behavior in systems ranging from industrial water treatment and nuclear power to biomedical implants and atmospheric corrosion. 1974 by NACE, 644 pages, seven tables, 255 figures, references, index. Although the content of this book is high quality, the pdf quality of this product is not to our normal standards.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
