Corrosion is the natural, gradual deterioration of metals reacting with their environment. It degrades the useful properties of metals and structures including their strength and structural integrity. In the ambient environment, most metal alloys tend to revert to their natural stable states. Carbon steels, for example, are made up of iron and a combination of other alloying elements. Without any additional surface protection, they tend to form a layer of rust (iron-oxide); which is brittle and ...
