THE ABILITY OF A COATING TO RESIST chemical deterioration or staining is an essential element in its evaluation. What follows is a review of established test procedures with various levels of complexity and equipment sophistication that provide a standardized tool for evaluating…
Nitrogen oxides are common by-products of fossil fuel combustion and are one of the most significant types of air pollution. The nitric oxides react with UV radiation to form oxides of nitrogen, ozone and acids. The nitrogen oxides can have considerable impact of the life of pol…

The issue of biodamages comprises a wide range of scientific and practical tasks associated with protection of raw materials and products against damage by bacteria, fungi, insects and rodents during long-term storage, production, transportation and operation. The biodegradation…
The evolution of fuel cells and their components -- Degradation mechanism of perfluorinated membranes -- Ranking the stability of perfluorinated membranes to attack by hydroxyl radicals -- Stabilization of perfluorinated membranes using Ce3+ and Mn2+ redox scavengers: mechanism …
Examines the important topic of fuel cell science by way of combining membrane design, chemical degradation mechanisms, and stabilization strategies, This book describes the mechanism of membrane degradation and stabilization, as well as the search for stable membranes that can …
