For Whom Intended Engineers, scientists, aides and technicians. Previous knowledge of corrosion or materials engineering is not required.
Objectives To provide basic understanding of the mechanisms of corrosion, and measures that can be used to control corrosion. The course also includes a brief overview of the properties of commonly used engineering materials and their resistance to deterioration.
Brief Course Description Corrosion is responsible for the failure of many systems and structures. Unchecked corrosion can result in excessive maintenance and repair as well as system downtime and product contamination.
This course will focus on the cause of corrosion of metals, the results of corrosive action and the measures that can be used to control corrosion.
The course will describe the basic electrochemical processes responsible for the corrosion of metals, the mechanisms of corrosion and the resulting effects of the various types of corrosion on the ability of the metals to perform their intended function. Particular emphasis will be placed on the identification and solution of practical corrosion problems in real engineering situations.
The performance of engineering materials, including both metals and non-metals in real service environments will be discussed including the application of basic materials science to the selection and application of materials.
Certificate Programs This course is an elective for any TTi specialist certificate program.
Prerequisites There are no definite prerequisites. However, this course is aimed toward individuals involved in related technical fields.
