Corrosion and the prevention thereof is a large and complex subject that even the engineers
sometimes get wrong. Metals tend to combine with other elements and compounds. Measures taken to prevent involve effort, expense and understanding. It is not unknown for effort and expense to be defeated by failure to understand.
Years ago my mother overheated a stainless steel cook pot…after cleaning out the pot she
poured in chlorine bleach to deal with black stain….overnight the stainless steel was pitted
through to copper clad bottom…Revere ware stainless steel plus chlorine ions yum yum for
corrosion. Stain in pot was unaffected.
