Corrosion is a pervasive phenomenon affecting materials across a multitude of scales, from the atomic to the macroscopic. This review paper presents a comprehensive examination of the methodologies employed in the analysis of magnesium corrosion, including electrochemical, non-electrochemical and analytical approaches, emphasizing the need for a diverse array of analytical tools to understand the complex interplay between corrosion, microstructure, and the dissolution mechanisms of magnesium alloys.
