This book aims to provide a comprehensive and systematic introduction and summary of corrosion characteristics, mechanisms, and control methods of candidate alloys in sub- and supercritical water environments.

First and foremost, the book compares and analyzes the corrosion types of candidate alloys and the effects of major alloying elements on corrosion resistance in sub- and supercritical water. It also summarizes the research status of candidate materials and the development and application trends of several corrosion-resistant alloys.

Next, the book delves into the detailed corrosion characteristics of Ni-Cr, Ni-Cr-Mo, Ni-Fe-Cr, and Ni-Fe-Cr-Mo-Cu corrosion-resistant alloys, FeCrAl alloy, and Zircaloy. It includes discussions on corrosion rates, oxide film structures, and the effects of various surface treatment processes. Furthermore, the book investigates corrosion behavior of Ni-based alloys, Fe-Ni-based alloys, and stainless steels in supercritical water. It also explores the effects of aggressive species on the corrosion behavior of Ni-base alloys in supercritical water.

The book further explores the total corrosion processes and mechanisms of typical candidate alloys in sub- and supercritical water environments. It also explores corrosion control methods such as ceramic coatings and passivation processes in supercritical water oxidation and in subcritical water, respectively.

Finally, the book covers future challenges and development trends in corrosion research of candidate materials in sub- and supercritical water environments. It offers valuable reference for theoretically guiding material selection and design, operating parameter optimization, and troubleshooting of key equipment in the sub- and supercritical water technologies.

Overall, this book is a valuable resource for researchers, engineers, and practitioners in the field of corrosion science and engineering, particularly in the areas of sub- and supercritical water technologies.
