Sažetak
The book is divided into five parts.
The first part, Introduction, encompasses theoretical considerations about maintenance activities and preservation activities related to military equipment, with a specific focus on the preservation of military equipment, as well as control and supervision in units responsible for military equipment care.
The second part, Maintenance and Preservation of Military Equipment, tracks the evolving practices involved in the upkeep of military equipment components utilized within military units. It outlines the expenses linked with technical and material assets (referred to herein as TMA), spanning from procurement through their entire life cycle.
The third part, Corrosion, covers corrosion in general, its origin, types of corrosion, corrosion control methods, corrosion monitoring, surface treatment of metals to prevent the formation of corrosion products, treatment of metal surfaces with corrosion protection coatings, and corrosion testing methods in chambers. It also presents general theoretical considerations of corrosion affecting most materials used in everyday life.
The fourth part, Corrosion Inhibitors, deals with inhibitors in general, types of corrosion inhibitors (with a special emphasis on vapor-phase or volatile corrosion inhibitors), and green corrosion inhibitors. Theoretical in nature, it delves into their mechanisms of action and their broad applications in safeguarding against corrosion.
The fifth section, Preservation of Military Equipment Using Volatile Corrosion Inhibitors, examines the procedures for preparing military equipment for preservation and de- preservation, employing volatile corrosion inhibitors on components utilized within military units. It places particular focus on designated categories of military equipment and their storage conditions. Additionally, it addresses the materials employed in preserving military equipment, along with techniques for testing anticorrosive polyethylene films. The discussion extends to safeguarding military equipment not presently subjected to preservation using volatile corrosion inhibitors, proposing potential adaptations of this technology for broader application.
