taux de corrosion : Ce terme a été uniformisé par le CN. C'est malheureux parce que le terme anglais «rate», ici, ne désigne pas un «taux». Un «taux» est un nombre permettant de chiffrer l'importance d'une corrosion, ce qui n'est pas le cas ici. Il s'agit de la notion abstraite de vitesse. 3, record 1, French, - vitesse%20de%20corrosion
