Abstract
The effects of the polarizing current intensity and pulse duration on polarization resistance R(p) and coefficient K, which relates it to th e corrosion rate of low-carbon steel 20 in tap water, were studied. Th ick films of corrosion products that form on the surface affect R(p) a nd K. The data were used in the algorithm of the working program that was elaborated for a microprocessor system to measure the corrosion ra te.
