The problem of corrosion in industrial environments, such as
refineries, pulp and paper plants, and chemical factories, is as old
as the industry itself. Unlike hard corrosion, which causes physical
degradation of equipment, soft corrosion attacks the process control
systems with minimal visual signs. Operations managers have long
realized that electronic components are at the mercy of the gases,
acids, and impurities that such environments contain. As a result,
corrosion of these components causes production stoppages, lower
productivity, increased production costs, and higher maintenance
budgets.
