Résumé

With an annual consumption of 35 million metric tons, aluminium is the second most commonly used metal in the world after steel. Its lightness is very often the most important advantage for the commercial development of aluminium, which explains why it is extensively used for ground transport, aerospace and shipbuilding. The second advantage of aluminium is its resistance to corrosion.

Christian Vargel is now a consultant on corrosion of aluminium having been a practitioner throughout his long career. He is also a recognised expert in this field. His first book Le comportement de l'aluminium et de ses alliages (The behavior of aluminium and its alloys) was published by Dunod in 1979. This second book gives the reader a global approach to corrosion and includes the selection of alloys, design principles and service conditions. It will contribute to the development of aluminium in those fields where resistance to corrosion is an essential property.
