Corrosion and Its Objective Questions

The document discusses corrosion and its control in metallic systems. It covers various types of corrosion like chemical, electrochemical, uniform and galvanic corrosion. It addresses passivity in stainless steel, cathodic protection of steel, galvanic couples when exposed to acids, and equations for uniform corrosion rate. Typical metallic coatings for corrosion protection are discussed along with Pourbaix diagrams and corrosion phenomena like pitting, stress corrosion cracking and intergranular corrosion.
