Direct chemical corrosion and electrochemical corrosion

Corrosion is a natural process, which converts a refined metal to a more chemically-stable form, such as its oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide. It is the gradual destruction of materials (usually metals) by chemical and/or electrochemical reaction with their environment.

Electrochemical corrosion of metals occurs when electrons from atoms at the surface of the metal are transferred to a suitable electron acceptor or depolarizer . Water must be present to serve as a medium for the transport of ions. The most common depolarizers are oxygen, acids, and the cations of less active metals.
