Corrosion: Presented by M.Logesh

Corrosion is the degradation of a material due to a reaction with its environment, which can weaken the material through a loss of cross-sectional area, shatter a metal from hydrogen embrittlement, or crack a polymer from sunlight exposure. It presents as corrosion on surfaces like a coated handrail, the nose of the Statue of Liberty, and is the topic of study at the Corrosion Technology Laboratory.

Degradation of a material due to a reaction with its environment. Degradation implies deterioration of physical properties of the material It can be a weakening of the material due to a loss of cross-sectional area, it can be the shattering of a metal due to hydrogen embrittlement, or it can be the cracking of a polymer due to sunlight exposure
