Abstract
The dose-response functions (DRFs) developed for the prediction of first-year corrosion losses of copper and aluminum (<em>K</em><sub>1</sub>) in continental regions are presented. The development of DRFs is based on the stablished dependences of the corrosion losses of these metals on SO<sub>2</sub> concentration: <em>K </em>= <em>f</em>([SO<sub>2</sub>]). Experimental data on the atmosphere corrosivity and corrosion losses of the metals in a one-year exposure period according to ISOCORRAG and UN/ECE international programs, the Russian program, and МICAT project were used. Comparisons of the predicted <em>K</em><sub>1</sub> values obtained by three different DRFs with experimental <em>K</em><sub>1</sub> values are presented. These DRFs are analyzed in terms of the coefficients they contain.
