New Accelerated Corrosion Test Method Simulating Atmospheric Corrosion of Complex Phase Steel Combining Cyclic Corrosion Test and Electrochemically Accelerated Corrosion Test.

The automobile industry commonly uses cyclic corrosion tests (CCTs) to evaluate the durability of materials. However, the extended evaluation period required by CCTs can pose challenges in this fast-paced industry. To address this issue, a new approach that combines a CCT with an electrochemically accelerated corrosion test has been explored, to shorten the evaluation period.
