The ability of a metal surface to withstand repeated cycles of corrosion is known as:
A)Cavitation erosion
B)Corrosion fatigue
C)Erosion
D)Stress of corrosion cracking

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Corrosion fatigue refers to the process where a metal surface can withstand repeated cycles of corrosion, typically under the influence of mechanical stress. This phenomenon combines the effects of cyclic stress and corrosion, leading to the initiation and propagation of cracks at a faster rate than would occur from either stress or corrosion alone.
