The types of corrosion that have been observed on titanium may be classified under the general headings: general corrosion, crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking, anodic breakdown pitting, ...

Galvanic corrosion may occur when two dissimilar metals are in contact with one another in the presence of an electrolyte creating an electronic pathway for the movement of electrons (such as water).

Corrosion is a well-known threat to the longevity and safety of vehicles, and aircraft are no exception. Aircraft maintenance ...
