Corrosion
Rusting, or corrosion, is a common phenomenon that we observe in our daily lives. Many objects made of iron will eventually become coated with an orange or reddish-brown layer. This is caused by a chemical process known as rusting, which is a type of corrosion.
Cossorion is a process in which refined metals are converted into more stable compounds such as metal oxides, metal sulfides, or metal hydroxides. Rusting of iron involves the formation of iron oxides through the action of atmospheric moisture and oxygen. At its core, corrosion is a spontaneous and irreversible process in which metals transform into more stable chemical compounds like oxides, sulphides, hydroxides, etc. In this lesson, we will explore the concept of corrosion in further detail, including its meaning, types, prevention, and more.

Corrosion Examples and Reactions
Corrosion Definition
Corrosion is the process by which a material, usually a metal, breaks down due to chemical reactions with its environment.
What is Corrosion? It is essentially the process of degradation of metals due to their reaction with substances such as water or air. This reaction causes the metal to break down and disintegrate, starting from the area exposed to the environment and spreading to the entire metal structure.
Corrosion is generally considered to be an undesirable phenomenon as it can have a negative impact on the desirable properties of metals. For instance, iron is known for its good tensile strength and rigidity, however, when it is subjected to rusting, it can become brittle, flaky and structurally unsound. On the other hand, corrosion is a diffusion-controlled process and mostly takes place on exposed surfaces. Therefore, in some cases, efforts are made to reduce the activity of the exposed surface and increase the material’s corrosion resistance. Techniques such as passivation and chromate conversion are used for this purpose. However, some corrosion mechanisms are not always visible and are even less predictable.
Alternatively, corrosion can be classified as an electrochemical process since it usually involves redox reactions between the metal and certain atmospheric agents such as water, oxygen, sulphur dioxide, etc.
Does All Metals Corrode?
Metals placed higher in the reactivity series, such as iron, zinc, etc., corrode very easily due to oxidation. Metals placed lower in the reactivity series, such as gold, platinum, and palladium, do not corrode as easily because their oxidation potentials are lower.

Interestingly, aluminium doesn’t corrode unlike other metals even though it is reactive. This is because aluminium is already covered by a layer of aluminium oxide, which acts as a protective barrier and prevents further corrosion.
Factors Affecting Corrosion
- Exposure of the metals to air containing gases such as CO2, SO2, and SO3.
2. Exposure of metals to moisture, particularly salt water, which increases the rate of corrosion.
3. Presence of impurities such as salt (e.g. NaCl).
4. Temperature: An increase in temperature can lead to an increase in corrosion.
- Nature of the first layer of oxide formed:
Some oxides, like Al2O3, form an insoluble protecting layer that can prevent further corrosion. Others, like rust, easily crumble and expose the rest of the metal.
6. Presence of Acid in the Atmosphere: Acids can easily accelerate the process of corrosion.
Rate of Corrosion
The Deal–Grove model is often used to describe the formation of an oxide layer, and helps in predicting and controlling oxide layer formation in a variety of diverse situations. An alternative method, the weight loss method, is used to measure corrosion. This method involves exposing a clean, weighed piece of metal or alloy to a corrosive environment for a certain duration, followed by a cleaning process that removes the corrosion products. The piece is then weighed again to determine the loss of weight.
The rate of corrosion (R) is calculated as:
‘(\begin{array}{l}R=\frac {kW}{\rho A \cdot t}\end{array} )’ he said
He asked, “Where?”
K = Constant
W = weight loss of the metal in time t
A = Surface area of the metal exposed
The density of the metal is ρ (in g/cm³).
#Types of Corrosion
Some of the corrosion types include:
(i) Crevice Corrosion
Whenever there is a difference in ionic concentration between any two local areas of a metal, a localized form of corrosion known as crevice corrosion can occur. This type of corrosion usually takes place in confined spaces, such as gaskets, the undersurface of washers, and bolt heads. All grades of aluminium alloys and stainless steels are also susceptible to crevice corrosion due to the formation of a differential aeration cell, which leads to the formation of corrosion inside the crevices.
(ii) Stress Corrosion Cracking
Stress Corrosion Cracking (abbreviated as SCC) is a type of corrosion that occurs when tensile stress is applied to a metal in a corrosive environment, resulting in cracking of the metal. It is often seen at high temperatures.

(iii) Intergranular Corrosion
Intergranular corrosion is caused by impurities present in the grain boundaries that separate the grains formed during the solidification of the metal alloy. Additionally, it can result from the depletion or enrichment of the alloy at the grain boundaries.
Aluminum-base alloys are susceptible to Intergranular Corrosion (IGC).
(iv) Galvanic Corrosion
When two metals that are electrochemically dissimilar and in an electrolytic environment have an electrical contact, galvanic corrosion can occur. This type of corrosion is the degradation of one of the metals at a joint or junction. A common example of this is when copper in a salt-water environment comes in contact with steel, which can lead to degradation.
When aluminium and carbon steel are connected and immersed in seawater, aluminium corrodes quicker while steel is shielded.
(iv) Pitting Corrosion
Pitting Corrosion is an extremely unpredictable and hazardous form of corrosion. It is initiated at a single point, forming a corrosion cell surrounded by the normal metallic surface. The pit then expands in a vertical direction, penetrating the metal and leading to structural failure if not addressed. As it is difficult to detect in its early stages, it is considered one of the most dangerous types of corrosion.
Consider a droplet of water on a steel surface; pitting will initiate at the center of the water droplet (the anodic site).
Uniform Corrosion
This type of corrosion, commonly known as atmospheric corrosion, is easily identifiable due to its surface-level attack on the metal. Although its effects are relatively low, it can still have an impact on the material’s performance.
A piece of zinc and steel immersed in diluted sulphuric acid would usually dissolve over its entire surface at a constant rate.
(vi) Hydrogen Grooving
The corrosion of the piping is caused by grooves that are formed when a corrosive agent, corroded pipe constituents, and hydrogen gas bubbles interact. When the protective coating comes into contact with the bubbles, it is usually removed.
(vii) Metal Dusting
Metal dusting is a form of corrosion that results from the exposure of vulnerable materials to environments with high carbon activities, such as synthesis gas. This leads to the break-up of bulk metal into metal powder, as a graphite layer is deposited on the metal surface from the carbon monoxide (CO) in the vapour phase. The graphite layer forms meta-stable M3C species (where M is the metal), which usually moves away from the metal surface. In some cases, however, no M3C species may be observed, indicating that the metal atoms have been directly transferred into the graphite layer.
(VIII) Microbial Corrosion
Microbial corrosion, also known as microbiologically influenced corrosion (MIC), is a form of corrosion caused by microorganisms, the most common being chemoautotrophs. Metallic and non-metallic materials, in the presence or absence of oxygen, can be affected by this corrosion.
(VIII) High-Temperature Corrosion
High-temperature corrosion, as the name implies, is a type of corrosion of materials (primarily metals) caused by exposure to high temperatures. Chemical degradation of metal can result from a hot atmosphere containing gases such as oxygen, sulfur, or other compounds. These compounds can easily oxidize the materials (metals in this case). For instance, materials used in car engines must be able to withstand prolonged periods of high temperature, during which they can be affected by a corrosive atmosphere of combustion products.
Corrosion: Examples, Reactions and Effects
Here are some common examples of corrosion seen in metals:
1. Corrosion of Copper
When copper metal is exposed to the environment, it reacts with the oxygen in the atmosphere to form copper (I) oxide, which is a red color.
2Cu(s) + ½ O2(g) → Cu2O(s)
Cu2O further gets oxidized to form CuO, which is black in color.
Cu2O(s) + O2(g) $\rightarrow$ 2CuO(s)
CuO reacts with CO2, SO3, and H2O (present in the atmosphere) to form Cu2(OH)2(s) (Malachite), which is blue in colour, and Cu4SO4(OH)6(s) (Brochantite), which is green in colour.
This is why copper turns a bluish-green color when observed.
The colour of the Statue of Liberty is an example of this, as its copper coating has turned to a blue-green hue.
2. Silver Tarnishing
Silver reacts with sulphur and sulphur compounds in the air, forming silver sulphide (Ag2S) which is black in colour. When exposed to the atmosphere, silver reacts with the H2S(g) present due to certain industrial processes, creating Ag2S.
2Ag(s) + H2S(g) → Ag2S(s) + H$_2^+$(g)
3. Corrosion of Iron (Rusting)
The rusting of iron, which is the most commonly seen example, occurs when iron comes in contact with air or water. This reaction can be seen as a typical electrochemical cell reaction, as demonstrated in the diagram below:
![Corrosion of Iron (Rusting)]()")
At the anode position, metal iron (Fe) loses electrons and gets converted to Fe{aq}2+. The electrons then move to the cathode position, where they combine with H+ ions released either by H2O or by H2CO3 present in the atmosphere.
$$\ce{H2O <=> H+ + OH-}$$
(\begin{array}{l}H_2CO_3 \rightleftharpoons 2H^+ + CO_3^{2-}\end{array})
The Hydrogen formed by the reaction of H+ and electrons reacts with oxygen to form H2O.
Anode Reaction
2Fe(s) → 2Fe$^{2+}$ + 4e$^{–}$ ; (E_{\ce{Fe^{2+}/Fe}^{0}} = -0.44\ \text{V})
Cathode Reaction
$\begin{array}{l}{O_2(g)} + 4{H^+}{(aq)} + 4e^- \overset{2}{\longrightarrow} {H_2}{O{(l)}}{E^o}_{{H^+}/{O_2}/{H_2}/O,,,} = 1.23V\end{array}$
Overall Reaction:
2Fe(s) + O2(g) + 4H+(aq) → 2Fe2+(aq) + 2H2O(l) \ Eocell = 1.67V
The Fe2+ ions formed at the anode react with oxygen in the atmosphere, getting oxidised to Fe3+ and forming Fe2O3. This Fe2O3 then comes out in the hydrated form as Fe2O3.xH2O.
Fe2+ + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3
Fe2O3 + xH2O → Fe2O3*xH2O (rust)

Other examples include:
The reaction of Zinc with oxygen and HCl to form white coloured ZnCl2 causes corrosion of Zinc.
The Corrosion of Tin forms black coloured Na2[Sn(OH)2].
Effects
Corrosion can have a wide range of impacts on many things. Most notably, it leads to the waste of natural resources. Furthermore, it can create potentially hazardous situations, such as weakened and unstable structures, accidents due to corroded parts, and other unwanted failures such as cracked pipelines, collapsing bridges, transport vehicle crashes, and other disasters. Therefore, it is imperative to check for and prevent corrosion at all costs.
Prevention of Corrosion
Preventing corrosion is of utmost importance in order to avoid huge losses, as many of the structures we see and use are made out of metal, such as bridges, automobiles, machinery, and household goods like window grills, doors, and railway lines. To protect these materials from corrosion damage due to exposure to the weather, saltwater, acids, or other hostile environments, several treatments can be used to slow or prevent corrosion. Some of the popular methods to prevent corrosion include:
Electroplating
Galvanization
Anodization
Passivation
Biofilm Coatings
Anti-Corrosion Protective Coatings
Painting and Greasing
Use of Corrosion Inhibitor or Drying Agents
Periodic Cleaning of Metal Surface
