Corrosion is the gradual destruction of a metal by chemical or electrochemical means. It occurs during a reaction between a material, usually a metal, and its environment that produces a deterioration of the material and its properties. This Fourth Edition presents an updated overview of the essential aspects of corrosion science and engineering that underpin the tools and technologies that are used for managing corrosion, enhancing reliability, and preventing failures.
