Does uniform corrosion is electrochemical (anodic & cathodic sites) or chemical corrosion (oxidation of metal)?:mad:

Uniform corrosion originates from chemical attack.

so you mean no anodic no cathodic sites found

If it was uniform, wouldn't that exclude the possibility of different regions?

yea , thats what i understand but in a cprrosion course the instructor said that there is anodic and cathodic sites but we cant separate them , so by this way he exclude that it is chemical and mean that it is electrochemical ???
