Abstract
Abstract An appraisal has been made of the reports of Robert Mallet on the action of water and air upon iron and steel, based on tests made in 1838–42 under the sponsorship of the British Association for the Advancement of Science.

A brief review of some aspects of progress in the understanding of corrosion from 1800 to the present is also given.
