Aims and Scope: Corrosion is a truly interdisciplinary science and the aim is to discuss the underlying chemistry and physics of the most important forms of metal corrosion. Mechanistic as well as applied aspects will be dealt with. Lectures: The course includes 16 lecture hours on three consecutive days prior to NKM15. Most lecturers are part of KorrosionsCentrumTM (a collaboration between Swerea KIMAB and KTH) in Stockholm and the most competent experts in their respective fields. All lecture rooms are located on Osquldas väg 6B, level 1, 2 or 3, at the KTH Campus area. Date/Time  Room  Lecture  Topic May 17: 10.15-12 13.15-14 14.15-17   Q31 Q31 Q31 C. Leygraf J. Pan D.

Marcus, Marcel Dekker, Inc., New York (2002).  The course book has to be purchased in advance by each participant, price around 100 Euros. A limited number of the 1st edition of the book (1995) will be available at course start and can be purchased at a much lower price, 25 Euros. In addition, lecture notes will be distributed by the lecturers. Prerequisites: The participants are assumed to be graduate students at the university or researchers working in industry with a background in physics, chemistry or materials science. The introductory lecture covers necessary background information. Examination: An individual project task must be completed within one of the topics of the course, and under supervision of the corresponding lecturer. The total amount of work of each task should be of the order of four weeks and should be completed by Sept 1, 2010. Course Fee: The course fee is included in the registration fee of NKM15.
