What is it about?
Since the corrosion phenomenon is basically an electrochemical redox reaction. It can be evaluate and analyzed by many electrochemical methods as well as non-electrochemical tragical ones. In this chapter, we describe some representative evaluation methods for corrosion from practical methods to scientific ones using electrochemical methods.

Why is it important?
Corrosion can be evaluated electrochemically, because the redox reaction is the essence for corrosion phenomena. In this chapter, we described the fundamental principle for the electrochemical measurement. Based on them, the latest advanced technique should be learned later.
Perspectives
Corrosion science began to develop, when the electrochemical knowledge was incorporated. Nowadays, it is far advanced, but in this chapter, we introduced a very simple and fundamental aspect of electrochemistry for corrosion.
