If the Ionic or Electro-chemical theory of corrosion, as described in the preceding chapter, be accepted it is then easy to divide all practical cases of corrosion into three types : (1) Auto Corrosion, (2) Contact Corrosion, and (3) Externally Induced Corrosion. (reference).
These can result from a number of causes including the method of application, the condition of the surface or any pre-treatment. Corrosion is an electro-chemical process which transforms steel influenced by oxygen and water, in iron hydroxyde (rust).Corrosion is most often caused when steel is exposed to atmospheric conditions, such as salt, moisture, and oxygen. A protective coating to the steel required to prevent corrosion.Corrosion of stainless steels can be categorised as one of:orrosion is most often caused when steel is exposed to atmospheric conditions, such as salt, moisture, and oxygen.
