Abstract
Corrosion mitigation technology undoubtedly is advancing more rapidly now than ever before. New techniques and new materials make the engineer's problem less difficult. Early in 1948, several prominent corrosion engineers reasoned that the properties which made polyvinyl chloride tape excellent for electrical applications would also make it highly desirable as a pipe protection tape. After soil tests and other accelerated laboratory tests had indicated its merits, several companies requested a wider plastic electrical tape than ordinarily manufactured. The first actual applications were made by several large gas distribution companies in the United States early in 1949.
