← HistoryWhich outcome accelerates blade weathering within early cast iron Chinese agricultural tools?
A)Ferrite phase boundary corrosion
B)Cementite allotrope decomposition
C)Graphitic corrosion galvanic coupling✓
D)Phosphorus promoting passivation disruption
💡 Explanation
Graphitic corrosion happens because Fe in cast iron dissolves, leaving behind graphite; galvanic coupling accelerates this, therefore causing faster blade degradation by surface loss, rather than passivation or cementite alteration dominant in weathering alone.
