Can you elaborate on this? you said density does not affect corrosion rate. then you said I need wall material density to make the conversion. How should I calculate the corrosion rate for different pipe materials? Currently, I am calculating it with the Total surface corrosion rate, which is in kg/m^2.

I divided it by density (kg/m^2) / (kg/m^3) which becomes just (m), for the duration of simulation (in my case 1 year). then I multiply it by 1000 to convert it to mm. Is this method correct?
