Rust - The Longest War

Jonathan Waldman Kenton 620.11223 w164r 2015

I hoped to learn more science. Some interesting history on naval zinc anodes and mentions of electrochemical potentials, A lot of chatter and ideology.

  • p41 Harry Brearley Stainless Steel w chromium 1871-1948
  • p76 Ball Can School / penny a can for lining / tests can take months / flavor testers / Beer mild, soda corrosive
    • 2 billion cans per year
  • p114 Frederick vom Saal 1996 BPA "doses 25,000 times lower"

The chapter on can linings dwells on BPA - the author mentions ridiculous studies showing absurd sensitivities, and doesn't mention the large, careful studies that show that BPA is efficiently excreted by humans, and other studies showing the common substitute, BPS, has similar (non) effects.

No notes, index, or citations. I would enjoy it more if I was angry and innumerate.
