Corrosion Engineering

Corrosion Engineering is the science of preventing and controlling the deterioration of materials, mainly metals, due to chemical reactions with their environment. It involves understanding how and why materials corrode—like rust on steel—and developing methods to protect structures and machinery, ensuring safety and longevity. This field combines principles from chemistry, physics, and engineering to design protective coatings, material selections, and maintenance practices that minimize corrosion and reduce costs over time.
