What is the difference between erosion and corrosion?
What is the difference between erosion and corrosion?
- Erosion is a chemical reaction between a material and its environment, while corrosion is a physical-mechanical process of material removal.
- Erosion is a mechanical process of material removal from a sliding or rolling component, while corrosion is a physical-mechanical process of material removal by flow of wind or water.
- Erosion is generally proportional to load and the distance of sliding, while corrosion is not influenced by load or sliding distance.
- Erosion is a physical-mechanical process of material removal by flow of wind or water, while corrosion is a chemical reaction between a material and its environment. (correct)
