CORROSION RESEARCH: THE BRITISH IRON AND STEEL RESEARCH ASSOCIATION Part 1—Corrosion of Bare Ferrous Metals

Abstract

The Corrosion Committee, which was constituted in 1928 and is now under the aegis of the British Iron and Steel Research Association, has been investigating corrosion problems for nearly 30 years. This article summarises the most important results obtained. They relate to atmospheric corrosion where the resistance to attack can be appreciably augmented by the use of low‐alloy steels, to corrosion by fresh and salt waters, and to corrosion by soil. Extensive researches have also been made on the protection of ferrous metals by paints and metal coatings.
