Corrosion rate quantifies material degradation: measured in mm/year or mils/year; depends on environment and material.

Пошаговое руководство

  1. 1Input material, environment, exposure time
  2. 2Calculate mass loss or penetration depth
  3. 3Estimate service life

Решённые примеры

Ввод
Mild steel in seawater: ~0.3-0.5 mm/year
Результат
After 10 years: 3-5 mm penetration
Significant engineering concern

Распространённые ошибки

  • Assuming uniform corrosion (pitting can be 10× faster)
  • Neglecting galvanic corrosion between dissimilar metals

Часто задаваемые вопросы

How do alloys reduce corrosion?

Chromium forms passive oxide layer; stainless steel >12% Cr dramatically reduces corrosion.
