Research on Corrosion Resistance of Steel Plates for Shipbuilding

Abstract

The corrosion of metallic materials is their partial or total destruction through chemical, electrochemical or biochemical reactions, by spontaneous interaction between the surface and the corrosive medium pollution. Generally, corrosion is defined as a medium attack to a material, an attack that leads to a worsening of the properties or destruction. Corrosion is not limited to the destruction of metallic materials; it affects equally plastics, ceramics, concrete and even the environment with which they interact.
