Series Introduction
The EFC, incorporated in Belgium, was founded in 1955 with the purpose of promoting European cooperation in the fields of research into corrosion and corrosion prevention.
Membership is based upon participation by corrosion societies and committees in technical
Working Parties. Member societies appoint delegates to Working Parties, whose membership is
expanded by personal corresponding membership.
The activities of the Working Parties cover corrosion topics associated with inhibition, education,
reinforcement in concrete, microbial effects, hot gases and combustion products, environment sensitive
fracture, marine environments, surface science, physico-chemical methods of measurement, the
nuclear industry, computer based information systems and corrosion in the oil and gas industry.
Working Parties on other topics are established as required.
The Working Parties function in various ways, e.g. by preparing reports, organising symposia,
conducting intensive courses and producing instructional material, including films. The activities of
the Working Parties are co-ordinated, through a Science and Technology Advisory Committee, by the
Scientific Secretary.
The administration of the EFC is handled by three Secretariats: DECHEMA in Germany, the Societe
de Chimie Industrielle in France, and The Institute of Materials in the United Kingdom. These three
Secretariats meet at the Board of Administrators of the EFC. There is an annual General Assembly atwhich delegates from all member societies meet to determine and approve EFC policy. News of EFC
activities, forthcoming conferences, courses etc. is published in a range of accredited corrosion and
certain other journals throughout Europe. More detailed descriptions of activities are given in a
Newsletter prepared by the Scientific Secretary.
The output of the EFC takes various forms. Papers on particular topics, for example, reviews or
results of experimental work, may be published in scientific and technical journals in one or more
countries in Europe. Conference proceedings are often published by the organisation responsible for
the conference.
In 1987, the then, Institute of Metals was appointed as the official EFC publisher. Although the
arrangement is non-exclusive and other routes for publication are still available, it is expected that the
Working Parties of the EFC will use The Institute of Materials for publication of reports, proceedings
etc. wherever possible.
The name of The Institute of Metals was changed to The Institute of Materials with effect from 1
January 1992.This follows the agreement upon the merger of the Institute with The Plastics and Rubber
Institute and The Institute of Ceramics. The complete integration of PRI and 1. Ceram. within the
Institute of Materials is expected by the end of 1992, though as at January 1992, both these bodies still
exist independently. The address, main telephone and fax numbers and VAT numbers are unchanged,

Preface
The interaction of iron and mild steel with their environments with the formation of rust and
the consequent wastage of the metal provides the most common example of how metals
deteriorate by corrosion; this is well illustrated by examples from everyday life such as the
perforation by corrosion of silencers and exhaust systems of cars and the wastage of various
kinds of structural steelwork.
The uniform corrosion of iron and steel is responsible for the conversion of large tonnage
of these metals into oxide with a consequent slow deterioration in the properties of the metal.
On the other hand any kind of localised attack may have serious consequences, although the
amount of corroded metal may be very small, and the cost involved may be far greater than
that of the component affected. Thus the failure of a heat exchanger tube by pitting attack
could result in the shut down of a power station, which could leave large areas of a city
without lighting or heating in midwinter. Similar considerations apply to the inconvenience
caused and the cost arising from the perforation of an underground water main.
There are also other important aspects of corrosion damage. Lives can be lost through
accidents arising from the failure through corrosion of mechanical components, for example
the braking systems on cars. The conjoint action of stress and corrosion can result in the
sudden fracture of metals at stresses well below their yield point and the consequences may
be catastrophic when vital components are concerned; the explosion of boilers and pressure
vessels and the disintegration of large turbo generators by various types of stress corrosion
cracking have been responsible for the loss of a number of lives. Also pollution of our
environment is becoming increasingly serious and this can be decreased, for example by
reducing the incidence of failures of pipes and tanks containing chemicals and fuels.
Several surveys*have indicated that, in most industrialised countries, the cost of corrosion
amounts to some 2-4.5% of the gross national product (GNP). It is further estimated that
between 15 to 25% of this cost could be saved by better use of current knowledge of corrosion
prevention methods, better protective systems, better design, etc.
The inconvenience and damage resulting from corrosion failures, and the consequent cost
to the individual and to the economy of a nation provide important reasons for attempts to
increase the knowledge of corrosion prevention. This manual has been prepared to assist in
such attempts by providing information for those wishing to learn more about corrosion, for
those teaching corrosion and for those whose responsibility it is to minimise the cost of
corrosion to the economy of their country.

Acknowledgements
This manual has been prepared under the auspices of the EFC Working Party on Corrosion
Education, whose membership is cited on page 46. The work started under the editorship of
Professor K N Strafford and was continued under the late Professor J S Llewelyn Leach", the
chairman of the Corrosion Education Working Party**. The editors would like to thank the
members of the WP for their help and guidance and especially the former Chairman, Gosta
Svendenius and the former Secretary, Bengt Sundvall.
The Editors are also grateful to Ms Kaija Estrat, the librarian of the Swedish Corrosion
Institute, for the preparation of the list of Journals and Periodicals (page 34 et seq), Abstracts
Journals (page 36) and sources of Data Bases (page 37).
The Manual is a revised version of that originally produced in 1974, incorporating
alterations and amendments as recommended, with up-dating as appropriate. Interest and
concern in all aspects of corrosion science and engineering continues to grow, so that
providing truly up-to-date sources of information within the terms of reference of even this
manual is difficult. While attempting to include recent information however, the editors
make no apology for incorporating earlier details. Thus, although certain corrosion monographs and publications are now out of print they are still an important source of information
and no doubt are often available in libraries. It is hoped that the Manual will provide useful
information and further stimulate interest in this fascinating and economically important
subject.
P. Neufeld
Secretary to the Working Party
* The committee are considerably indebted to Professor Leach for his work in the preparation of this Manual.
Professor Leach died only a few months before publication of the Manual.
** The editorial work was completed and the text prepared for publication by Mr A. D. Mercer.
1. DEFINITION
OF CORROSION
- SCOPE OF MANUAL
Definition of Corrosion
Corrosion has been defined as :
"Physicochemical interaction between a metal and its environment which results in changes
in the properties of the metal and which may often lead to impairment of the function of the
metal, the environment, or the technical system of which these form a part". (ISO 8044-1986)
Note that the term "corrosion" applies to the process, not to the result, which is "corrosion
damage", deterioration or effect. Implicit in the concept of corrosion as a process is the rate
of corrosion reaction; implicit in the damage caused is the extent and nature of the damage
in relation to the function of the systems concerned.
In a broader sense the concept" corrosion" is used also for non-metallic materials, for instance
plastics. These are, however, not dealt with in this manual.
Scope of manual
This manual is primarily designed to provide sources of information for all those concerned
with the science and technology of the protection of metals against corrosion.
For teachers it provides examples of courses and information ontextbooks, and other teaching
aids. For students it provides information on textbooks, handbooks, journals and advisory
services that should prove to be of value to their studies and subsequent careers. For
designers, chemists, engineers and other professionals it indicates sources of advice for the
avoidance and solving of corrosion problems within their industrial activities.

16. STANDARDS
National, international and other types of standards exist for various aspects of corrosion,
corrosion prevention and testing. All European countries have national standards bodies but,
in general, the standards that are used in the corrosion field are covered by those published
by only a few organisations. * Thus, the standards most widely quoted are those from AFNOR
(France), BSI(UK), DIN (Germany) and SIS (Sweden) as well as those produced by ISO, ASTM
and NACE. Several examples are quoted in various sections of this Manual.
The situation concerning corrosion standards in Europe was examined in detail in a
conference held in London in 1990. The proceedings were published in full by The Institute
of Metals in the volume "Corrosion Standards: European and International Developments"
P McIntyre and A D Mercer eds. 1991, 108p. This publication includes lists of national
Standards originating from Europe, USA and ISO and extant at the end of 1990.
* See, for example, A D Mercer "Present and future corrosion scene in Europe". Plenary
lecture to UK Corrosion and EUROCORR '88 published in Br. Corros. J. 24, (2), 1989,89-94.
