Abstract
The invention relates to a method for simulating and determining the corrosion behavior of an electrically conducting element (2) when said element is embedded in a polymer matrix. The corrosion is determined by mounting the element as working electrode (2) in a usual measuring cell (1) for electrochemical corrosion. The element is thereby embedded in a viscous, preferably transparent mass (4) as electrolyte containing selected substances capable of attacking the element (2).
