Description
Summary:Wear and corrosion involve many mechanical and chemical mechanisms, and the combined action of these mechanisms often result in significant mutual reinforcement. Other researchers have studied the interactions of wear and corrosion in a qualitative way for specific wear-corrosion environments. The US Bureau of Mines is interested in presenting the results of wear, corrosion and wear-corrosion tests in a standard format, so that these data can be utilized to develop practical engineering criteria for any tribosystem. To reach this goal, penetration rate equations have been developed to quantify the wear and corrosion processes and wear-corrosion synergism.
