Applied Chemistry I: UNIT 4: Corrosion and Control

Corrosion and Control: Introduction

Corrosion is defined as the gradual destruction or deterioration of metals or alloys by the chemical or electrochemical reaction with its environment.

Unit ‒ IV

Corrosion and Control

 

INTRODUCTION

Metals and alloys are generally used as fabrication or construction materials in engineering. If the metal or are not properly maintained, they alloy structures are deteriorate slowly by the action of atmospheric gases, moisture and other chemicals. This phenomenon of deterioration or destruction of metals and alloys is known as corrosion.

 

Definition

Corrosion is defined as the gradual destruction or deterioration of metals or alloys by the chemical or electrochemical reaction with its environment.

 

Consequences (or) Effects of Corrosion

1. Due to formation of corrosion product over the machinery, the efficiency of the machine gets lost.

2. The products get contaminated due to corrosion.

3. The corroded equipments must be replaced frequently.

4. Plant gets failure due to corrosion.

5. It is necessary for over design to compensate for the corrosion.

6. Corrosion releases toxic products, health hazard, etc.

7. Time is lost in making available parts.

8. The value of the goods is reduced.
