“It is convenient to classify corrosion by the forms in which it manifests itself, the basis for this classification being the appearance of the corroded metal. Each form can be identified by mere visual observation. In most cases the naked eye is sufficient, but sometimes magnification is helpful or required. Valuable information for the solution of a corrosion problem can often be obtained through careful observation of the corroded test specimens or failed equipment.”
Is this a quotation from the last edition of CORROSION BASICS?

The main goal of the following list will be to introduce our continuously growing number of visitors to the many facets and forms of corrosion.
