Corrosion is a natural process that converts a refined metal into a more chemically stable form such as oxide, hydroxide, or sulfide. It is the gradual destruction of materials by chemical and/or electrochemical reaction with their environment.
Explanation:
An extra mile -
- Corrosion (from the Latin word corrodes, meaning "to gnaw") is the irreversible damage or destruction of living tissue or material due to a chemical or electrochemical reaction. Example: A prime example of corrosion is rusting of iron or steel.
- General corrosion occurs when most or all of the atoms on the same metal surface are oxidized, damaging the entire surface. Most metals are easily oxidized: they tend to lose electrons to oxygen (and other substances) in the air or in water. As oxygen is reduced (gains electrons), it forms an oxide with the metal.
- Alternatively, a more easily oxidized metal can be applied to a metal surface, thus providing cathodic protection of the surface.
- There are five general types of corrosion: galvanic, stress cracking, general, localized, and caustic agent corrosion.
