BASIC RESEARCH IN AMERICA: N.B.S. Progress in Corrosion Studies

Abstract

In America, the National Bureau of Standards is investigating the primary processes of corrosion to solve some of the practical engineering problems encountered today. Large single metal crystals are employed in some of the research to correlate corrosion with the arrangement of atoms in the crystal lattice. Other studies include the electrical phenomena, the mechanism of the formation of oxide films and the effect of illumination on the corrosion reaction.
