Erosion corrosionErosion corrosion is a degradation of material surface due to mechanical action, often by impinging liquid, abrasion by a slurry, particles suspended in fast flowing liquid or gas, bubles or droplets, cavitation, etc. The mechanism can be described as follows:
Additional recommended knowledgeThe mechanism of erosion corrosion, the materials affected by it, and the conditions when it occurs are generally different than that of flow-accelerated corrosion, although the last one is sometimes classified as a sub-type of erosion corrosion. Surface chemistry can play a role in erosion corrosion due to mechanochemical effects. See alsoFurther reading
