Building blocks of a successful corrosion management plan

NACE International identifies the three foundational building blocks needed for institutionalizing a corrosion management plan.

Why is microbial control becoming so important?

In this podcast from Materials Performance, learn the reasons behind the growing concerns of microbiologically induced corrosion, now a critical issue in the energy industry.

Cathodic protection program best practices for water utilities – even for those with limited resources

Corrosion is a source of failures and a financial burden to drinking water utilities. A cathodic protection program can reduce both. Here are some best practices tailored for this industry.

Controlling microbiologically influenced corrosion in pipelines

Experts share insights into controlling MIC in pipelines and case studies of successfully installed MIC prevention programs.

Prepare steel surfaces for the best coatings outcome by using these new guidelines

New wet abrasive blast (WAB) & waterjet (WJ) cleaning surface preparation standards help ensure the quality coating of steel surfaces.
