High temperatures like that required close tolerances and corrosion-resistant materials compared to steam.

By the same token, there won't be much need to scrap cars built with corrosion-resistant materials and engines that go 100,000 miles between tune-ups.

A tether will consequently need to either be made from a corrosion-resistant material or have a corrosion-resistant coating, adding to weight.

"Also, the alloys allow us to form more corrosion-resistant material," Mr. Kilkenny said.

This unit is constructed from high-quality corrosion-resistant materials, right down to the stainless-steel nuts and bolts.

They work by providing a barrier of corrosion-resistant material between the damaging environment and the structural material.

A steaming hood is a mobile device consisting of corrosion-resistant materials such as aluminum, which is put down onto the area to be steamed.

The aircraft is built for reliability and longevity, with use of corrosion-resistant materials.

Copper is also used as a special corrosion-resistant material in renewable energy systems in wet, humid, and saline corrosive environments.

The flyscreen is made of corrosion-resistant material that is able to withstand intense rainfall, high temperature and strong sunlight.
