ABSTRACT
Corrosion is the effect of unwanted chemical reactions on the structures and properties of metals and alloys. For engineers out in the field, corrosion means delays and production problems. Corrosion can be further defined as the deterioration of any material in contact with its surroundings. Therefore, engineers will not only have to deal with corrosion of metals but also to corrosion of plastics, wood, concrete, protective coatings, and roofing.
