the reaction of metallic surfaces with atmospheric contaminants. These include airborne chlorine or sulphur compounds, oxygen or moisture.
Yes, copper is corrosion resistant due to its ability to form a protective layer of oxide on its surface, which helps prevent further corrosion.

The most effective methods for preventing aluminum corrosion include using protective coatings, anodizing, and alloying with other metals. An aluminum corrosion inhibitor can be utilized by applying a thin film on the surface of the aluminum to enhance protection. This inhibitor acts as a barrier to prevent corrosive substances from reaching the aluminum surface, thus reducing the likelihood of corrosion.
Phosphoric acid can decrease the corrosion resistance of stainless steel by promoting the formation of localized corrosion, such as pitting and crevice corrosion. This is due to the acid's ability to break down the protective passive film on the stainless steel surface, making it more susceptible to corrosion.
Here are four ways (adapted from the related link): Corrosion control Protective coatings: Most widely used corrosion control technique. Protective coatings protect metal from corrosion by separating the surfaces that are susceptible to corrosion from the factors in the environment which cause corrosion to occur. Cathodic protection: interferes with the natural action of the electrochemical cells that are responsible for corrosion. Cathodic protection can be effectively applied to control corrosion of surfaces that are immersed in water or exposed to soil. Corrosion inhibitor: Uses one or more of these mechanisms: Adsorption as a thin film on the surface of a corroding material; inducing formation of a thick corrosion product; forming a passive film on the metal surface; changing characteristics of the environment either by producing protective precipitates or by removing or inactivating an aggressive constituent.

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..

Direct corrosion of metallic materials occurs when the metal is in direct contact with a corrosive substance, leading to localized deterioration of the material. In contrast, indirect corrosion happens when the metal is exposed to a corrosive environment through a medium such as water or air, causing uniform degradation over a larger surface area. Direct corrosion is typically more rapid and localized, while indirect corrosion can be slower and spread out over a larger area. Both types of corrosion can weaken the metal and compromise its structural integrity over time.
No, it's known as erosion. Corrosion is the weathering of things like metal and glass.
The ability of the metal to resist corrosion in atmosphere with moist.corrosion ocuurs in ferrous materials in which ferrous chemically react with oxygen forming rust or corrosion. Corrosion can be avoided by Heat treatment and surface coating .
Fretting corrosion is a complex process which involve chemical corrosion and friction (by asperities, surface irregularities) between components in motion, fluids moving in tubes, etc.
some how but i dont know the answer
