description

The basic driving force of localized corrosion or corrosion protection in numerous cases is the galvanic coupling of which the dimensional aspect is fixed by a combination of scales regarding interfacial processes or properties. At the electrolyte–metal interface, it is necessary to consider the microstructure (including all real-time modification induced for example by applied stresses), the possible chemical changes at the surface of the material, and the electrolyte conductivity contribution, among others factors.
