dc.descriptionThe corrosion behaviour of mild steel in maize juice, acidified maize juire and acetic acid environments was studied in this investigation. The observed corrosion reaction of the steel's surface in these environments seems to be predominantly that of general corrosion. The acetic acid environment was found to be the most corrosive. The maize juice was the least aggressive environment and this might be due in part to the firm formation that tends to passivated the steels surface. The strength properties (load-to-failure and time-to-fracture) decreased with increase in exposure time in the three environments. The hydrogen atoms prod1,1a:d during the corrosion reaction could diffuse into the steel matrix to cause hydrogen embrittlement of the steel.
