When rusting occurs, some of the outer metal converts to a crumbly iron oxide that doesn't have the same strength as the metal. The deeper the rusting goes into the metal , the weaker the bar will become.
Rusting is a term adequate only for iron and iron alloys.
Rusting is a chemical reaction - an oxydation; the essential factor for iron rusting is oxygen.

Rusting of iron is due to H+ ions!!Hence the alkaline medium reduces the conc of H+ (While increasing the conc of OH-).. hence not falicitating the rusting of iron!!
