INDA B105

Corrosion

Students will learn electrochemical theory of corrosion and the factors that Influence of materials chemical composition and microstructure on corrosion behavior. Topics include the mechanisms of active corrosion, galvanic corrosion, passivity, localized corrosion, electrochemical reduction reactions, environmentally assisted cracking, and methods of corrosion mitigation. Assignments include the testing of materials corrosion susceptibilities and case studies of corrosion failures.
