Atmospheric Corrosion Guide: ISO 9223 Corrosivity Classes

Atmospheric Corrosion Guide: ISO 9223 Corrosivity Classes

Short answer: Atmospheric corrosion is the slow attack metals suffer from air, moisture and pollutants; ISO 9223 classifies it from C1 (dry indoor) to C5 (marine/industrial) so you can pick the right alloy, coating and thickness for the site.

Classifying the Air

Corrosivity rises with chloride and pollutant load; match it to Metal Corrosion Inhibitor Guide 그리고 Metal Corrosion Monitoring Guide. Avoid mismatches with Galvanic Corrosion Guide.

Choosing Protection

Higher classes need more zinc (Zinc Plating Vs Galvanizing) or barrier coat; estimate loss with Metal Corrosion Rate Calculation Guide and rank metals via Galvanic Series Guide.

QA & Supply

Document alloy and coating per Mill Test Certificate Guide and protect stock via How To Prevent Metal Rust. HXSCO supplies site-matched metal and coatings.

자주 묻는 질문

What is atmospheric corrosion?

Metal loss driven by air, moisture and pollutants on exposed surfaces.

What does ISO 9223 classify?

The corrosivity of an atmosphere from C1 (mild) to C5 (severe).

Which class is coastal?

C4 to C5 — high chloride raises the attack rate.

How do I pick a metal for C5?

Use marine alloys plus heavy coating and planned thickness allowance.

Do you supply site-matched metal?

HXSCO supplies alloys and coatings matched to your corrosivity class.
