Cutting the cost of corrosion with temporary protectives

Abstract

In 1971 a government sponsored committee issued a report in which it was conservatively estimated that the cost of corrosion in the United Kingdom was £1,365,000,000 per year, which represented 1.5% of the gross national product. It was also stated that by making better use of current knowledge and existing techniques a saving of about £310,000,000 per annum could be achieved.
