Abstract

The Jeju Island in Korea is the clean area which the tradition culture is preserved locally well with the nature environment of Heaven's blessing. An air pollution is becoming recently serious problem as the industrial development is proceeded with the urbanization. This study investigates that the atmosphere environment at Jeju area influences on the metal corrosion. A study of the atmosphere corrosion for carbon steel, copper, zinc ana aluminium exposed on five test sites indoors and outdoors. Corrosion results are treated statistically and adjusted to a model previously proposed for carbon steel, copper, zinc and aluminium based on the influence of environmental parameters and main pollutants($SO_2$ and chlorides) on tire atmosphere corrosion of metals. Through this study, we try to set the standards atmosphere corrosion at Jeju Island.
