In the Handbook of corrosion engineering, the author Pierre R. Roberge states "Corrosion is the destructive attack of a material by reaction with its environment. The serious consequences of the corrosion process have become a problem of worldwide significance."
Rust is an iron oxide, a usually reddish-brown oxide formed by the reaction of iron and oxygen in the catalytic presence of water or air moisture.Rust consists of hydrous iron(III) oxides (Fe 2 O 3 ·nH 2 O) and iron(III) oxide-hydroxide (FeO(OH), Fe(OH) 3), and is typically associated with the corrosion of refined iron.
The journal was founded in 1965 as the British Corrosion Journal (BCJ).It was launched as a publication of the British Joint Corrosion Group, which represented the interests of a number of professional organisations, including the Institute of Metals (later known the Metals Society and the Institute of Materials) [a], to promote corrosion as an independent area of expertise.

He also authored Corrosion: A Compilation. [8] [9] In the late 1940s, he was given the chair in the Corrosion Center at Ohio State University. At the time it was the largest university corrosion research department in the United States. [10] He combined the disciplines of engineering design, Material Science and Corrosion so they could be ...
Stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is the growth of crack formation in a corrosive environment. It can lead to unexpected and sudden failure of normally ductile metal alloys subjected to a tensile stress , especially at elevated temperature.
Corrosion fatigue is fatigue in a corrosive environment. It is the mechanical degradation of a material under the joint action of corrosion and cyclic loading. Nearly all engineering structures experience some form of alternating stress, and are exposed to harmful environments during their service life.
The Underground Corrosion of Steel Piling was originally written as a collection of papers as Monograph 58, for the National Bureau of standards. [6] One of the two authors was Melvin Romanoff. After his death in October 1970 it was superseded by Monograph 158 and dedicated in his honor.
