Despite not all corrosion is unwanted, corrosion has become a growing economic concern. Taking an example of what happens in USA, corrosion of metals costs the economy almost $300 billion per year at current prices, which translates to 3-4% of GDP. Besides the economic concern, corrosion may adversely affect the environment

Drew Kelly IET 307 HW5 Dr. Nair 1) 2) 3) 4) I speculate that the type of corrosion was called Hydrogen Embrittlement. Various metal alloys, specifically some steels, experience a reduction in ductility and tensile strength when atomic hydrogen penetrates into the material. Basically it is a type of failure, the brittle fracture occurs as the cracks grow and rapidly propagate. HE is very similar to stress corrosion in that a normally ductile metal is exposed to a stress
