"Why Do We Still Not Pay Sufficient Attention To Corrosion?";
Material-ES (invited), 4 (2020), 3; 44 - 47.



English abstract:
In this paper, we intend to invite reflection on why insufficient attention is paid to the problems associated with the corrosion of metallic components or structures. Practical corrosion cases that we may observe in our daily life are presented as examples for different perceptions of the observed phenomena in terms of failure or poor design. We conclude that all who participate in a componentīs lifetime, from the specification phase over manufacturing through the time in service, in order to achieve an economically optimized technical solution for a desired functionality, require awareness of corrosion. Some aspects for improving the awareness are identified in education, in industry, and in their interaction.
