Abstract : Corrosion behavior of copper metal coupon in palk bay waters of mallipattinam coast influenced the presence and absence of fouling organisms study for six months have been studied from january16 to june16.The parameters such as open circuit potential (OCP) ,settlement of organisms ,rate of corrosion , pitting corrosion ,change in mechanical properties and surface analysis have been studied for copper corrosion behavior in sea water In presence and absence of fouling . Digital multi meter ,polarization technique ,XRD method ,SEM ,tenso meter instruments have been used for investigating period .

Key words : Open circuit potential ,biofouling organisms , pitting corrosion , scanning electronic microscope , tensometer ,palk bay waters of mallipattinam coast (PBWMC) ,corrosion rate .
