11.01.2022 Thunyaluk Pojtanabuntoeng, Curtin Corrosion Centre Introduction Thermal insulations used for energy conservation and personnel protection can create an environment perfect for corrosion by forming a narrow annular space that can trap water between the metal surface and an insulation material or by acting as a wet sponge in contact with the metal surface. Once water reaches the metal, corrosion under insulation (CUI) can occur.... https://membership.corrosion.com.au//minimising-cui-risks/

11.01.2022 In July 2019, the Australasian Corrosion Association (ACA) held an international symposium, Advances in Corrosion Science and Corrosion Engineering, to celebrate the many contributions made to Australasian corrosion science and engineering by Bruce Hinton, Les Boulton, Brian Martin, Brian Kinsella, Greg Moore, and David Nicholas. International Symposium Proceedings The structure of the symposium, held in Melbourne, Australia, was geared to invite keynote papers and presenta...tions from five international and nine Australian distinguished corrosion science and engineering researchers and practitioners in the fields to which those gentlemen have largely dedicated their life works, namely: corrosion inhibition, engineering alloys, corrosion-resistant alloys, corrosion modelling and prediction, cathodic protection, oil and gas corrosion, and water and wastewater corrosion.

06.01.2022 Surface engineering is a sub-discipline of material science with applications in many industries including mining, oil & gas, steel, agriculture, automotive, etc. If a material degrades over time, it always starts from the surface as a result of interaction with the environment, causing wear and corrosion. Surface engineering processes in combination with smart material choices can significantly extend a components service life.
