ISO 8044:2020 pdf download.Corrosion of metals and alloys — Vocabulary.Remember to share this on you social platforms.
ISO 8044:2020 defines terms relating to corrosion that are widely used in modern science and technology. In addition, some definitions are supplemented with short explanations.
The definitions in this document have been drawn up with the objective of achieving a proper balance between precision and simplicity. The main objective of this document is to provide definitions that can be understood to have the same meaning by all concerned. Some corrosion terms in present use ave developed through common usage and are not always logical. It has not, therefore, been possible to define certain terms in the form they are used in some countries. Because of the occasional conflicts between tradition and logic, some definitions inevitably represent a compromise.
An example of this kind of conflict is the term”corrosion”。 This has been used to mean the process, results of the process and damage caused by the process. In this document, corrosion is understood to mean the process. Any detectable result of corrosion in any part of a corrosion system is termed “corrosion effect.The term”corrosion damage “covers any impairment of the function of the technical system of which the metal and the environment form a part. Consequently, the term”corrosion protection “implies that the important thing is to avoid corrosion damage rather than to prevent corrosion, which in many cases is impossible and sometimes not necessary.
physicochemical interaction between a metallic material and its environment that results in changes in the properties of the metal, and that may lead to significant impairment of the function of the metal, the environment or the technical system, of which these form a part.
