Electrochemical Corrosion Testing Basics by a_attarchi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Most metal corrosion occurs via electrochemical reactions between the metal and an electrolyte solution like moisture or concrete. Corrosion happens as opposing anodic and cathodic reactions reach equilibrium. Electrochemical techniques like measuring current over time or versus potential changes can be used to study corrosion processes. Models like the Tafel equation and Butler-Volmer equation relate current, potential, and kinetics to estimate the corrosion rate. Polarizing the metal surface away from its
