The Corrosion of Iron, written by L.C. Wilson in 1915, is a comprehensive guide that explores the various causes of corrosion in iron and the preventive measures that can be taken to avoid it. With the industrial revolution in full swing, iron was becoming an increasingly important material for construction and manufacturing. However, its susceptibility to corrosion was a major concern for engineers and scientists alike. Wilson’s book provides a detailed analysis of the chemical and physical processes that cause iron to corrode, including the effects of oxygen, water, acids, and other corrosive agents. He also discusses the different types of corrosion, such as uniform, pitting, and galvanic, and the factors that contribute to their occurrence. In addition to describing the causes of corrosion, Wilson offers practical advice on how to prevent it. He discusses various methods of protecting iron surfaces, such as coatings, electroplating, and cathodic protection. He also provides guidance on the selection of materials and design considerations to minimize the risk of corrosion. Overall, The Corrosion of Iron is a valuable resource for engineers, scientists, and anyone interested in the properties and behavior of iron. Wilson’s insights and recommendations remain relevant today, more than a century after the book was first published.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
