Study of Corrosion of Ferrous and Non-Ferrous Metals in Aqueous Medium
Abstract: Metals, like ferrous and non-ferrous, interact on their interface to develop corrosion cells. The aqueous medium produces a hostile environment due to the availability of dissolved oxygen, acids, bases, salts, bio-waste, and effluents. The solubility of acidic gases oxide of carbon, oxide of nitrogen, and oxide of sculpture create an acidic medium for metal. These unfriendly environments accelerate corrosion reactions and metals exhibit uniform, galvanic, pitting, crevice, stress, and lynching …
