Abstract

The needs, objectives, and techniques for evaluation of material property data are reviewed with respect to their applicability to certain types of corrosion data. Examples of approaches that have been taken for data generated from exposures in natural environments and industrial processes are described to illustrate methods used for characterizing the materials, the environment and exposure conditions, the measurement techniques used to describe these components, and the delineation of controlling factors with respect to specific forms of corrosion.
