Answer:
Corrosion of polymers. Corrosion on polymers, both plastics and rubber materials, is in many cases similar to metals but in other cases it looks very different. Corrosion attacks on polymers are often hard to discover, the material may look normal but can in fact be embrittled and have lost it´s mechanical strength.

Answer:
Plastics, more accurately called polymers, are not metallic so they don't corrode as such. However, the do suffer from environmental degradation. Polymers degrade in the environment because some agent causes the covalent atomic bonding in them to break down. This agent can be heat, ultraviolet light or chemicals.
