Abstract

This article presents the issues related to the corrosion processes occurring in the steel elements from which road machines are made. The types of corrosion processes that occur in metals exposed to an aggressive environment are presented, and the problems of chemical corrosion of metals are also described. Issues related to the methods of corrosion prevention were also presented, with an emphasis on the use of paint coatings. The article characterizes the causes of corrosion problems by the 5xWhy method and the so-called VoC (Voice of Customer) used in the Six Sigma method. Paint coatings are the simplest, most effective, and cheapest way to protect steel elements against an aggressive corrosive environment. The article also characterizes the most typical and most used paint coatings. The article ends with a summary of recommendations for the maintenance and storage of road machines outside the season in which they are used.
