Interplay of Water Chemistry and Entrained Particulates in Erosion Corrosion of Copper and Nonleaded Alloys in Potable Water Systems

Erosion corrosion of plumbing materials in domestic water systems is a complex phenomenon driven by water quality, hydrodynamic and electrochemical factors. Erosion corrosion accounts for over a third of copper hot water system failures in the U.S., hundreds of millions in damage, and may be expecte...
