“…As the metal corrodes, the cross-section of the electrode decreases, causing a proportional increase in electrical resistance. ER sensors are one of the most common corrosion monitoring techniques used in different fields, including in the construction industry [ 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 ], the oil and gas industry [ 13 , 19 , 20 ], the automotive sector [ 21 ], in nuclear waste management [ 22 , 23 , 24 ] and in other, general applications [ 25 , 26 , 27 ].
