The cost of corrosion in China
Economics: What corrosion cost China in 2014 It is estimated that the effects of corrosion in China cost approximately $310 billion USD in 2014. Corrosion is a costly issue, justifying substantial expenditure into techniques to protect and mitigate susceptible metals from its effects, and research i...
