Asbestos/cement pipe corrosion. Part 2, Review of recent work on the causes of pipe degradation and on possible improvements / Boris Nebesar.: M38-13/83-17E-PDF

"Our current understanding of the theory of corrosion, explained in simple language, can provide the basis for improved control and prevention of corrosion of asbestos/cement pipe. The environment, agents, and mechanisms of corrosion of asbestos/cement pipe are critically reviewed from the viewpoint of recent developments in basic knowledge and technology including use of different cements and protective coatings, changes in design of pipe and systems, control of transported drinking and waste water, use of bactericides, and removal of asbestos fibres. An executive summary and conclusions are given. This review is directed to a wide readership with various backgrounds and is based on 73 references in six languages, mainly from countries actively working on asbestos/cement pipe"--Abstract, page i.
