Corrosion Awareness Day and Debate Photos 2017
A study done by Mintek in 2011, found that the current corrosion technology available in the country can only solve 25% of our corrosion problems!!! There is an opportunity for you, youthful person with ideas and goals.
Corrosion results in 4-5% loss of the South African GDP!!! That accounts for only the direct costs... Can South Africa afford to lose this money???
What is corrosion?
Textbook answer: Corrosion is the detoriation of a material due to its interaction with the environment. This process maybe electrochemical in nature.
Let's educate one another! Bring your definition!!!
