Many metals and alloys depend upon surface films or corrosion products for corrosion resistance. If these surface layers are removed, active and rapid corrosion occurs. Erosion corrosion is often encountered under conditions of high velocity, turbulence, impingement, and solids in suspension. 1, record 1, English, - erosion%20corrosion
