Abstract
The American Iron and Steel Institute conducted an opinion poll at the SAE “Corrosion 83” conference to answer specific questions on corrosion and its prevention. The results reported here indicate that vehicle corrosion resistance remains as a major issue. The survey compares the responses of corrosion professionals in three industries (vehicle production, steel production and chemical processing) and shows that there is a common agreement on the definition of the corrosion problem and its solution. In general, metallic coated steels are expected to be the principal factor in the improved corrosion resistance of future vehicles, but there are some concerns about the application of these coated steels on a very broad basis.
