Overview

Environmental assisted cracking of metals is an important topic related to many industries in lives. Although the problem with this type of corrosion has been known for many years, the debate on the effects and possible remedies available under different environmental conditions is ongoing and topical. Previous volumes have tended to concentrate on single aspects and causes (e.g. stress corrosion fracture), while ignoring other mechnisms such as hydrogen embrittlement, corrosion fatigue and more modern concerns such as the near neutral SCC pipelines).

Author Information

Raul B. Rebak studied Chemical Engineering at the University of Misiones and then received a national scholarship to work at the Argentine Commission of Atomic Energy. He attended The Ohio State University’s Materials Science program where he received a PhD degree in corrosion and metallurgy. From 1996 to 2000 he worked as a corrosion engineer at Haynes International in Indiana and from 2001 to 2007 at the University of California Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Since 2007, Dr. Rebak has served as a corrosion scientists at GE Global Research Center in Schenectady, NY where he provides his experience in corrosion science and corrosion engineering applications in areas such as nuclear, oil and gas, energy storage, aviation, etc. Dr. Rebak has over 30 years’ experience in the corrosion and energy industry and has published over 250 technical articles in corrosion. He is a member of ASTM International, NACE International, ASM International, TMS, etc. He is a Fellow of NACE International and The Corrosion Society.
