Two established theories of SO 2 /atmospheric corrosion of iron, viz. the Acid Regeneration Cycle and an electrochemical model, are reviewed in terms of recently reported experimental results and acceptance of the electrochemical model as the main corrosion path. Theoretical analyses of proposed electrochemical mechanism are discussed and applied to a previously suggested mechanism, and a new one suggested here as an extension of recently reported results.
