About This Item
TS 5731 is a terminology standard that brings together general terms and definitions for corrosion of metals and metal alloys. It establishes a common technical language for corrosion science so that concepts such as pitting, galvanic action, passivation, and related phenomena are used consistently across documents and disciplines. Standards of this kind are primarily definitional; they reduce ambiguity in technical communication rather than prescribing a test method.
Scope of the terminology set
The scope covers general corrosion terms, names for corrosion types, electrochemical corrosion terminology, terms used in corrosion testing, and definitions for fundamental electrochemical concepts. This makes the document useful not only for describing damage mechanisms, but also for the language used to discuss measurement, interpretation, and reporting. In general technical context, corrosion is understood through ideas such as anodic metal dissolution, cathodic reactions, electrolyte presence, and the behavior of surface films.
Where this vocabulary is used
Corrosion terminology supports material selection, maintenance planning, inspection records, laboratory documentation, and engineering communication. Standardized definitions help prevent one term from being interpreted differently in different industries or organizations. As a terminology standard, TS 5731 provides a controlled conceptual framework for corrosion-related documentation rather than a set of performance requirements.
