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).
The easiest way to protect against uniform attack corrosion is usually to put a protective barrier between the metal and the corroding agents. This can be a wide variety of things-paint, an oil sealant, or an electrochemical solution like a galvanized zinc coating.. Prevent uniform attack corrosion by protecting the metal surface. Uniform attack corrosion (sometimes shortened to uniform corrosion) is a type of corrosion that occurs, appropriately, in a uniform fashion over an exposed metal surface.
