This lecture covers the mechanisms of corrosion, including oxidation kinetics and oxide growth, as well as the formation of protective oxides. It discusses the impact of oxygen, water, and different environments on metal corrosion. Various methods for corrosion protection, such as cathodic protection and coatings, are explored. The importance of good design in preventing corrosion is emphasized, along with the economic implications of corrosion on society. The lecture also delves into the evaluation of corrosion risks and the role of solution chemistry in understanding chemical reactions related to corrosion.
