Atmospheric corrosion and impact toughness of steels: Case study in steels with and without galvanizing, exposed for 3 years in Rapa Nui Island

We studied atmospheric corrosion on Rapa Nui Island, using galvanized and non-galvanized SAE 1020 steel samples exposed on racks. We also added Charpy samples of both materials to directly determine the effect of corrosion rate on these materials' impact toughness. The results indicated a corre...
