corrosion control

Corrosion control involves methods used to prevent or slow the deterioration of metals caused by chemical reactions with their environment, such as moisture or air. This can include applying protective coatings (like paint or galvanization), using corrosion-resistant materials, and controlling environmental conditions (like reducing humidity). These strategies help extend the life of metal structures and equipment by preventing rust and other forms of damage. Proper corrosion control reduces maintenance costs, improves safety, and ensures the reliability of infrastructure like bridges, pipelines, and machinery.
