Erosion corrosion is a type of material degradation that occurs when a metal surface is subjected to a combination of mechanical wear (erosion) and electrochemical corrosion processes. This phenomenon typically arises in environments where a corrosive fluid (such as water, chemicals, or slurries) flows over a metal surface at high flow velocities.
