Applied Chemistry I: UNIT 4: Corrosion and Control

Classification (or) Theories (or) Types of Corrosion

1. Dry (or) Chemical corrosion, and 2. Wet (or) Electrochemical corrosion.

CLASSIFICATION OR THEORIES OR TYPES OF CORROSION

 

Based on the environment, corrosion is classified into

1. Dry (or) Chemical corrosion, and

2. Wet (or) Electrochemical corrosion.

 


1. DRY OR CHEMICAL CORROSION

Dry corrosion is due to the attack of metal surfaces by the atmospheric gases such as oxygen, hydrogen sulphide, sulphur dioxide, nitrogen, etc.

There are 3 main types of dry corrosion.

1. Oxidation corrosion (or) corrosion by oxygen.

2. Corrosion by hydrogen.

3. Liquid‒metal corrosion.



2. WET OR ELECTRO‒CHEMICAL CORROSION

Wet corrosion occurs under the following conditions.

(i) When two dissimilar metals or alloys are in contact with each other in the presence of an aqueous solution or moisture.

(ii) When a metal is exposed to varying concentration of oxygen or any electrolyte.
