The aim of the present study is to experimentally examine the corrosion progress characteristics of steel associated with fresh and sea water immersion at low temperature. Three types of steel, namely mild steel (Grade A) and high tensile steel (Grades A and D) are tested under various corrosive conditions in the fresh water, in the sea water and in the air at a temperature of 18°C, 0°C and −10°C. Mass loss of test specimen due to corrosion is measured at a monthly interval and it is converted to a loss of steel plate thickness. Based on the test database, the effects of parameters affecting the corrosion progress are discussed. Test database obtained in the present study is documented.
