The study investigates the practical application of cyclic wet/dry corrosion tests in simulated industrial atmospheres to assess the impact of chromium (Cr) on the protective properties of vanadium micro‐alloyed weathering steels. Two types of steels were examined: a V‐N steel and a V‐N‐Cr micro‐all...
