moisture, acids, bases, or salts. An example is the rusting of iron. Corrosion damage in metals can be
seen, depending on the metal, as tarnishing, pitting, fogging, surface residue, and/or cracking. Plastics,
composites, and rubbers can also degrade. Degradation is caused by thermal (heat), oxidation (oxygen),
solvation (solvents), or photolytic (light, typically UV) processes. The most common exposures are
excessive heat or light. Damage from these processes will appear as cracking, softening, swelling, and/or
breaking. SF Form 368, Product Quality Deficiency Report should be submitted to the address specified
in DA PAM 738-750, Functional Users Manual for the Army Maintenance Management System (TAMMS).
