Corrosion is the natural degradation of a metal or alloy due to the reaction with the environment to which it is exposed.
Corrosion can show different forms, of which three main categories stand out:
- Group I: those that can be identified by visual inspection.
- Group II: those that require additional evaluation methods.
- Group III: those that should be verified by observation and laboratory analytical techniques.
Identifying corrosion shapes and failures requires specific knowledge, analytical resources, and experience.
