Preventing Metal Corrosion Webinar
About the Course
Join us for this webinar from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm ET
Corrosion causes many products to fail during testing and use. Many of these failures are preventable.
This webinar addresses common metal corrosion mechanisms and teaches design approaches to reduce and prevent corrosion. People like this webinar because the information is boiled down to practical concepts that are easy to integrate in designs.
What Will You Learn?
By the end of this webinar you will be able to:
- Describe the components of a metal corrosion cell and their roles in corrosion
- Explain the mechanisms of uniform corrosion, galvanic corrosion, crevice corrosion, pitting, stress corrosion cracking, intergranular corrosion, and dealloying
- List metallurgical and mechanical design approaches to control and prevent corrosion
Course Outline
Topics covered in this webinar:
- Parts of a corrosion cell
- Chemistry of corrosion
- Seven common metal corrosion mechanisms
- Metallurgical and mechanical design factors that influence corrosion rate
- Design approaches to control and prevent corrosion
Who Should Attend
This course is intended for design engineers who want to learn how to design components and products that have reduced risk of failure due to corrosion.
