Chapter Ⅰ Corrosion
　　1.1 The property or definition of corrosion
　　Corrosion is the process by which a natural entity interacts with its corresponding environment， causing changes of varying degrees in its original properties. This change process is spontaneous， hidden， gradual， continuous， non-linear， complex， and cumulative. It will cause catastrophic damage to mankind， and even cause major accidents like Japan’s Fukushima nuclear accident and China’s “11 22” pipeline explosion， which have shocked the world. It is completely different from overt engineering that is typically formed by a visible and tangible process of natural or artificial or composite integration and assembly， involving numerous related factors. Therefore， corrosion is an extremely unique and great engineering. Its uniqueness from the positioning is marked and determined by the attributes of its natural formation process. Its greatness arises from the catastrophic destruction can cause to humanity through its natural formation process， which may even lead to the aforementioned severe consequences! Greatness is embedded in the ordinary， so can it not be considered a great engineering when such significant accidents are caused by corrosion which is regarded as an insignificant and commonplace issue
　　1.2 The universality of corrosion
　　Corrosion permeates the entire world， in the sky and beneath the earth’s surface， on land and underwater; metals and non-metals. This includes biological and atmospheric corrosion of spacecraft， as well as seawater corrosion of ships and aircraft carriers， and much more. It is ubiquitous， penetrating everywhere， and present at all times! Corrosion exists in all spaces and environments where humans live， work， and produce. There is no place untouched by corrosion. Wherever there is corrosion， there must be corresponding substances that undergo corrosion; corrosion exists， arises， and ceases in reliance on any substance. Corrosion can’t exist independently. Examples include industries， national defense， infrastructure such as highways， railways， bridges， oil and gas pipelines， urban underground utilities， ports， dams， aerospace bases， and important buildings. In our daily lives， we encounter rusted iron nails on old wooden planks， rusty iron fences， corroded tin can lids， rusted steel reinforcement， corroded ship equipment， yellow water flowing from corroded water pipes， corroded oil and gas pipelines， and corroded hot water pipes. Other instances are the patina on bronze sculptures at the Dayan Pagoda Square， the tarnishing of the Terracotta Army and Horses and Chariots of the First Qin Emperor， discoloration of silver jewelry， hardening and brittleness of plastics， aging of rubber tires， yellowing and brittleness of ancient paper， decomposition of silk， decaying wood， fading and peeling of paint， decayed teeth， weathering of stones， and so forth， all fall into the category of corrosion. Sites like the Longmen Grottoes， Yungang Grottoes， Mogao Caves， the Iron Lion of Cangzhou， the Great Buddha of Leshan， the Mawangdui Tomb in Changsha， the Dingling Mausoleum in Beijing， and the Qin Mausoleum in Xi’an are all closely related to corrosion. Corrosion is the root of evil. Regarding this， humanity is still far from having a comprehensive and fundamental understanding of corrosion. Our efforts are just limited to localized， singular， and traditional “one-substance-controls-another” approaches for research， development， and control of certain corrosion phenomena and issues in the economy and industry. Therefore， it is crucial to have a comprehensive and complete recognition of the ubiquitous nature of corrosion， identifying it accurately， clearly， and comprehensively， ensuring no aspect is overlooked. This is an extremely important key issue in fundamentally and comprehensively solving the problem of corrosion. (This precisely addresses the purpose of establishing the International Corrosion Museum: to educate， promote， facilitate learning and exchange， and raise public awareness of corrosion as an extremely unique and great engineering. The corrosion process is not only invisible and intangible but also gradual， continuous， and nonlinear， making it extremely difficult to control—like the saying goes， “It’s easy to dodge a bullet but hard to avoid a hidden arrow”， illustrating the challenges involved in implementing corrosion control measures.)
　　1.3 The attributes of Corrosion
　　(1) Spontaneity
　　“Corrosion” is a naturally occurring phenomenon in the world since ancient times， existing independently of human influence. When a new entity emerges， it is accompanied by corrosion throughout its growth， development， and eventual demise. The corrosion naturally forms at corresponding stages， lurking within the different phases of the newborn entity and consuming its emergence， growth， and development， until finally disappearing alongside it. Therefore， corrosion is dependent on the emergence， exist
