National and international corrosion associations and institutions

By Corrosion Science News

Corrosion is a major problem for many industries, leading to billions of dollars in losses every year. To combat this, international societies and institutions have been formed to research the causes and prevention of corrosion. These organizations are dedicated to developing new technologies and materials that can resist corrosion, as well as educating the public about the dangers of corrosion and its prevention. By working together, these organizations are helping to reduce the economic impact of corrosion on businesses around the world.

There are many different corrosion associations scattered around the world that help researchers and professionals in the field to stay up-to-date with the latest developments. These organizations provide a great way to network with like-minded individuals and learn more about the causes and effects of corrosion. Some of the most well-known corrosion associations include the National Association of Corrosion Engineers (NACE), the International Corrosion Council (ICC), and the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC).
