5 Questions
What is the definition of corrosion?
Corrosion is the deterioration of materials by chemical interaction with their environment.
What are the learning objectives of Dr. K. Kalapriya's lecture on corrosion?
The learning objectives include introduction to corrosion, classification of corrosion, mechanism of corrosion, factors influencing corrosion, corrosion control methods, and corrosion inhibitors.
What is underground corrosion and where is it commonly found?
Underground corrosion refers to the severe corrosion suffered by buried gas or water supply pipes. It is not detected until an actual leakage occurs, by which time considerable damage may be done.
Why is it important to avoid raised resistance at low current connections in electronic equipment?
In electronic equipment, it is important to avoid raised resistance at low current connections because corrosion products can cause damage and have sufficient conductance to cause short circuits.
What are some examples of materials that can undergo corrosion?
The degradation of plastics, concrete, and wood can also be considered as corrosion, but the term generally refers to metals.
