Aa. Mikhailov et al., ATMOSPHERIC CORROSIVITY IN CITIES AND INDUSTRIAL-CENTERS OF THE FORMER SOVIET-UNION WITH RESPECT TO CARBON-STEEL, ZINC, AND COPPER, Protection of metals, 30(4), 1994, pp. 329-335
Methods of classifying the effect of the climate and air pollution on
the materials were described, including the International Standard ISO
9223. A database on the atmospheric corrosivity in cities and industr
ial centers of the Former Soviet Union (hereafter FSU) with respect to
carbon steel, zinc, and copper was created. Regression equations were
used for estimating the surface moistening time based on the data on
average annual relative humidity and temperature. Statistical data on
SO2 content and atmospheric corrosivity were considered, and the dynam
ics of the parameters in time was analyzed.
