Office of Saline Water (OSW) sponsored research on the behavior of metals in the desalination environment has been in progress at the Materials Test Center, Freeport, Texas, since 1966 for the purpose of evaluating the cause of materials failures and water chemistry factors which influence materials performance in the desalination environment. In the fall of 1972, electrochemical corrosion rate monitoring devices and weight-loss corrosion test racks were installed in the one million gallon per day desalination plant adjacent to the Materials Test Center.
