About Surface and Corrosion Protection Products
Surface protection products and corrosion protection products are used to protect metal surfaces in marine, transportation, chemical processing, papermaking, and petroleum applications. Surface and corrosion protection products are applied to ships, water tanks, oil pipelines, buried vessels, and transmission line towers in order to prevent corrosion. Corrosion is the electrochemical degradation of metal due to reaction with the environment. It can result from gradual chemical action such as rusting or a rapid chemical action such as pickling. Corrosion can also be caused by a reduction in electrical efficiency between a metal and a contiguous substance. Electrolytic corrosion is caused by the disintegrating effects of strong electrical current or ground return currents in electrical systems.
