What causes corrosion?
Basically, corrosion is a disintegration of a material. Corrosion is typically associated with rusting, but that is only one type of corrosion. Other types of corrosion include, erosion, cavitation, fretting, galvanic, thermo-galvanic, intergranular, pitting, and more. The main causes boil down to a few root causes, chemical reactions, friction and a lack of durability. Rust is a chemical reaction, there are more types of reactions than from water and air. Reactions from other metals, acids, etc. cause corrosion as well. Friction can cause stress cracking, fretting, and intergranular corrosion and erosion. Two pieces of metal that rub on each other can cause fretting and lead to corrosion. Or water running over a rock for a few hundred years can turn it into a smooth pebble. Durability is key. Some substances are harder than others, and thus harder to disintegrate. Automotive Solutions: powder coating and plating are common methods to prevent corrosion. Electroless nickel plating is common within parts like ABS sensor rings and gears. powder coating is used on pumps and tanks. zinc plating is often used on bolts and braces. Below is a link to a study on corrosion, its costs, causes and how to prevent it.
Why does corrosion rate of no value on localized corrosion?
in my opinion, the value of corrosion rate obtained from certain reading is generally determine general corrosion rate, regardless what type of corrosion occur on a specific surface. in localized corrosion, where only some spots on surface is exposed to corrosion and other may be covered by film and etc. From my time of study, still didn't fine any research that can determine corrosion rate of localized corrosion unless u have a really micro- instrumentation that can monitor corrosion on the localized spots..

Can enhanced chlorine level in fresh water lead to corrosion of stainless steel?
yes, it can not only lead to corrosion but a faster corrosion.
Is alloys resist to corrosion?
Alloys can add corrosion resistance to a metal
How can corrosion be reduced?
The corrosion on iron can be reduced by suitable thin layer of element to be electroplated.

Which pollutant causes the greatest corrosion of steel structures?
Answer 1: oxygen and carbon in the air :-) Answer 2: Depends on what type of corrosion you are referring to. Rust and corrosion are typically used interchangeably. Rust is one type of corrosion. Corrosion is essentially the disintegration of a engineered material. Rust is a chemical reaction, but there are other chemical reactions that cause corrosion of steel (typically acids). Other types of corrosion include fretting, erosion, cavitation, and galvanic reactions. There are many methods to prevent corrosion. One of the most versatile of prevention solutions is electroless nickel plating. Electroless nickel resists all types of corrosion.
