Abstract
Structural and chemical attributes of amorphous and nanocrystalline metals, which affect their corrosion behaviour are outlined. Effects of the fraction of intercrystalline regions, diffusivity, chemical homogeneity / heterogeneity and local ordering are indicated. These features can lead to higher or lower corrosion resistance as compared to coarse-grained counterparts, depending on the nature of tested metal and corrosive environment. Contributions of these factors are represented by two examples of passive behavior of nanocrystalline metals and amorphous Ni-P alloys.
