This presentation explores the widespread misconceptions surrounding corrosion\, examining why they are inaccurate and highlighting the underlying principles that govern material degradation. Through a series of carefully selected case studies\, the presentation demonstrates how these misconceptions can lead to misjudgements in design\, material selection\, and preventive strategies. \nThe discussion emphasises that corrosion is a complex electrochemical process influenced by multiple interacting factors\, rather than a simple\, predictable outcome of environmental exposure. By analysing real-world scenarios\, the presentation reveals how assumptions about corrosion behaviour can diverge significantly from observed outcomes\, underlining the importance of evidence-based assessment. \nRAchael earned her Master’s degree in Materials Engineering from Swansea University and is now a Materials Scientist at R-TECH Materials in Port Talbot. She specialises in materials-based investigations across a diverse range of metals\, alloys\, composites\, and plastics\, providing insights that support industries from petrochemical and oil & gas to marine and automotive. Her work combines technical expertise with practical problem-solving to address complex materials challenges in real-world applications. \nUnderstanding Cut-edge Corrosion of Model Coatings on Different Grades of Galvanized Steel. \nThe primary objective of this work was to identify and characterise the mechanisms and the kinetics of cut-edge corrosion of hot dipped galvanized steel (HDG) in comparison to new alloy coatings containing Zn\, Al (55 wt%) and Mg (up to 2wt.%). The understanding of the cut-edge corrosion behaviour of new metallic coatings is critically important due to their ubiquitous use in steel construction products\, especially those with organic coatings\, in addition to aligning with the growing initiative for renewability & sustainability in the modern world. To do this we studied the cut-edge properties of various galvanized steel panels under a protective Polyvinylbutyral (PVB) coating to ascertain the fundamental mechanisms of their corrosion. Each galvanized substrate was coated with a 25 µm thick PVB coating with a 1 mm diameter through coating circular defect created down to both the galvanizing layer and bare Fe metal of each material. These samples were then cycled through controlled environments with adjusted variables of temperature\, exposure time and electrolyte concentration. An example being placed in a controlled environment of 23.5oC with a relative humidity of 80% and a droplet of 5 wt.% NaCl applied over the defect area and was observed every 3 days for a total period of 30 days. We found that HDG showcased a consistent and rapid rate of corrosion throughout\, with severe delamination and corrosion occurring between the exposed HDG layer and PVB interface. Conversely the Al and Al/Mg containing samples showed different behaviour as the initial rate of corrosion was many times lower than the HDG samples\, with corrosion product visible only after multiple days of exposure. \nBoth Al containing coatings also displayed minimal delamination of the PVB later when exposed for the same length of time under similar conditions. Considering the two Al containing materials\, the initial corrosion rate of the Mg containing coating was higher than that of its counterpart\, however\, it later displayed a rapid decrease in the corrosion rate. The addition of Al and Mg reduces the cut-edge corrosion in comparison to HDG in systems with a model organic coating providing initial insights for further coating studies with multi-layer commercial paint systems. \nThomas Michael is a Swansea University post-graduate researcher in collaboration with AkzoNobel\, specialising in research regarding both corrosion mechanisms & organic coating systems for steel substrates. He graduated from Swansea University in 2023 with a degree in Material Science & Engineering and has an extensive family background in scientific fields. Outside of work he can be found modifying computers or participating in large scale group puzzle activities. \nAdditional Information: \nRegistration information will be shared with our Branch volunteers to help facilitate the \nFor Continuing Professional Development (CPD) or to join our Mailing List\, request by email to: swchair@icorr.org \nInstitute Professional Memberships are available at: https://www.icorr.org/grades-and-benefits-of-individual-membership-2/ \nFree Student Memberships are available at: https://www.icorr.org/free-student-membership/ [icorr.org] \nDownload Information Leaflet

SUMMARY:CEFRACOR Conference ‘Durability and prevention of microbiological degradation in maritime structures’
DESCRIPTION:La Rochelle26 – 28 November 2025 \nFollowing the Materials Degradation conference in Nancy in 2023 and the Cathodic Protection – Marine Sector day in Brest in 2024\, the “Biodétérioration des Matériaux” and “Protection Cathodique” commissions of CEFRACOR have decided to join forces to organize a joint conference on the theme “Durability and Prevention of Microbiological Degradation in Marine Structures.” Indeed\, it seems interesting to share/compare our knowledge on the impact that bacteria could have on cathodic protection and vice versa. \nThis conference is a place for exchanges open to all academic and industrial stakeholders concerned with issues between microorganisms\, materials\, and cathodic protection\, including beneficial effects. \nThree distinguished guests are expected at these events: \nBiwen An Steppec – Senior Scientist at the Norwegian Research Center\, Wednesday\, November 26\, 2025 \nRégine Basseguy – Research Director at LGC – CNRS Toulouse\, Thursday\, November 27\, 2025 \nBrian Wyatt – Director\, Control Corrosion LTD – UK\, Thursday\, November 27\, 2025 \nFor more information see website
