Forme de corrosion associée à la présence de petits volumes de solution corrosive dans des trous ou dans des crevasses, et d'une manière plus générale, associée à l'existence de zones où le liquide n'est que difficilement renouvelé. Il en résulte une corrosion accélérée par création de cellules galvaniques du fait des différences locales de concentration en oxygène ou en ions métalliques. Cette attaque électrochimique conduit à la formation de profondes fissures. 4, record 1, French, - corrosion%20caverneuse
