    © 2000 ASM International. All Rights Reserved. www.asminternational.org Corrosion: Understanding the Basics (#06691G) CHAPTER 1 The Effects and Economic Impact of Corrosion CORROSION is a natural process. Just like water flows to the lowest level, all natural processes tend toward the lowest possible energy states. Thus, for example, iron and steel have a natural tendency to com- bine with other chemical elements to return to their lowest energy states. In order to return to lower energy states, iron and steel frequently combine with oxygen and water, both of which are present in most natu- ral environments, to form hydrated iron oxides (rust), similar in chemi- cal composition to the original iron ore. Figure 1 illustrates the corro- sion life cycle of a steel product.

All Rights Reserved. www.asminternational.org Corrosion: Understanding the Basics (#06691G) 2 Corrosion: Understanding the Basics The Definition of Corrosion Corrosion can be defined in many ways. Some definitions are very narrow and deal with a specific form of corrosion, while others are quite broad and cover many forms of deterioration. The word corrode is de- rived from the Latin corrodere, which means “to gnaw to pieces.” The general definition of corrode is to eat into or wear away gradually, as if by gnawing. For purposes here, corrosion can be defined as a chemical or electrochemical reaction between a material, usually a metal, and its environment that produces a deterioration of the material and its proper- ties.

  • Corrosion Basics
    CORROSION BASICS (from Swain (1996) and Schultz (1997)) What is corrosion? • Webster’s Dictionary - corrode (v.) To eat away or be eaten away gradually, especially by chemical action. • NACE Corrosion Basics - corrosion may be defined as the deterioration of a material (usually a metal) because of a reaction with the environment. Why do metals corrode? Most metals are found in nature as ores. The manufacturing process of converting these ores into metals involves the input of energy. During the corrosion reaction the energy added in manufacturing is released, and the metal is returned to its oxide state. Metal Ore reduction (add electrons)→ Metal oxidation (strip electrons)→ Corrosion Products In the marine environment, the corrosion process generally takes place in aqueous solutions and is therefore electrochemical in nature. Corrosion consequences Economic - corrosion results in the loss of $8 - $126 billion annually in the U.S. alone. This impact is primarily the result of: 1. Downtime 2. Product Loss 3. Efficiency Loss 4. Contamination 5. Overdesign Safety / Loss of Life Corrosion can lead to catastrophic system failures which endanger human life and health. Examples include a 1967 bridge collapse in West Virginia which killed 46. The collapse was attributed to stress corrosion cracking (SCC). In another example, the fuselage of an airliner in Hawaii ripped open due to the combined action of stress and atmospheric corrosion. Corrosion cell Corrosion occurs due to the formation of electrochemical cells. In order for the corrosion reaction to occur five things are necessary. If any of these factors are eliminated, galvanic corrosion will not occur. THIS IS THE KEY TO CORROSION CONTROL! The necessary factors for corrosion to proceed are: 1.

  • 0007190-Fundamentals of Corrosion and Corrosion Control for .Pdf
    Fundamentals of Corrosion and Corrosion Control for Civil and Structural Engineers Thomas Sputo, Ph.D., P.E., S.E., SECB Corrosion of a Coated Handrail Corroded Rain Gutter Corrosion on the Nose of the Statue of Liberty Introduction Corrosion can be defined as the degradation of a material due to a reaction with its environment. 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. Materials can be metals, polymers (plastics, rubbers, etc.), ceramics (concrete, brick, etc.) or composites-mechanical mixtures of two or more materials with different properties. Because metals are the most used type of structural materials most of this paper will be devoted to the corrosion of metals. Most corrosion of metals is electrochemical in nature. 1 Electrochemistry Fundamentals Atoms: All matter is made of atoms composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The center, or nucleus, of the atom is composed of positively charge protons and neutral neutrons. The outside of the atom has negatively charged electrons in various orbits. This is shown schematically in the picture to the right where the electrons are shown orbiting the center, or nucleus, of the atom in much the same way that the planets orbit the sun in our solar system. All atoms have the same number of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). Therefore all atoms have a neutral charge (the positive and negative charges cancel each other).

  • Experiment #9 Corrosion of Metals
    EXPERIMENT #9 CORROSION OF METALS Objective The objective of this experiment is to measure the corrosion rate of two different metals and to show the effectiveness of the use of inhibitors to protect metals from corrosion. Background The importance of corrosion can be seen in daily life. Corrosion causes accidents in industry, on highways, and in homes. It is wasteful financially, costing industrialized nations 4-5% of their gross domestic products annually. A little knowledge of electrochemistry, material science and corrosion could save nations some 25% of this loss. Corrosion engineering is the application of science and art to prevent or control corrosion damage in a safe and economical manner. To perform this function properly, the corrosion engineer must rely on experimental research. This is because the major aspects of corrosion engineering are largely empirical in nature. A body of theory exists that can be very helpful in solving corrosion problems, but in the final analysis, most decisions are based on the results of empirical tests. Corrosion tests are conducted for a number of reasons including: 1. Establishing corrosion mechanisms. 2. Defining corrosion resistance of materials and how to develop new corrosion resistant alloys. 3. Estimating service life of equipment. 4. Developing corrosion protection processes. 5. Defining the critical potential values for materials in various environments. Theory Anodes and Cathodes: In analyzing corrosion, the first thing that must be determined is whether a metal reacts with its environment. If so, the nature of the reaction must be understood. It is generally accepted that corrosion processes are caused by the formation of electrochemical cells.
