    is known as corrosion of iron and its alloys such as steel or cast irons. Rust can be found on cars‚ metal pipes‚ aircrafts and anywhere with iron‚ copper and aluminium. Corrosion can be concentrated locally to form a split or crack‚ or it can extend across a wide area which causes corroding on surfaces. Because corrosion is a diffusion-controlled process‚ it occurs mainly on exposed surfaces. Besides costing millions of dollars in aircraft inspections and repair work‚ corrosion can lead to massive

    Introduction Corrosion is the gradual destruction of material‚ usually metals‚ by chemical reaction with its environment. The destruction or degradation implies deterioration of physical properties of the material. This can be a weakening of the material due to a loss of cross-sectional area‚ it can be the shattering of a metal due to hydrogen embrittlement‚ or it can be the cracking of a polymer due to sunlight exposure. So as long the metal is not be stored properly in condition‚ so the corrosion will

    Corrosion is the gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical reaction with its environment. In the most common use of the word‚ this means electrochemical oxidation of metals in reaction with an oxidant such as oxygen. Rusting‚ the formation of iron oxides‚ is a well-known example of electrochemical corrosion. This type of damage typically produces oxide(s) or salt(s) of the original metal. Corrosion can also occur in materials other than metals‚ such as ceramics or polymers‚ although
