👉 Rusting, in the context of engineering, refers to a specific type of corrosion that occurs on metals due to exposure to moisture. Rusting is caused by the chemical reaction between water and carbon dioxide, which causes the metal to become锈蚀,which can lead to the weakening or failure of the metal structure. This process can be accelerated if exposed to high temperatures, humidity, or other conditions that increase the amount of water present in the environment.
