This self-study course provides essential knowledge of corrosion testing and monitoring techniques. Corrosion testing and monitoring are powerful tools in the fight to control corrosion. Testing provides the necessary data for the evaluation and selection of existing, alternative, or new materials in various environments. Monitoring allows workers to follow the effectiveness of a corrosion-control system and provides early warning when damaging conditions arise.
The course addresses techniques for corrosion testing and monitoring, as well as diagnosing corrosion failures. Content includes laboratory and field testing methods, electrochemical testing procedures, specimen preparation requirements, and monitoring systems. Technical visuals, narrated animations, and interactive quizzes reinforce learning throughout the course.
