Johannesburg, Gauteng, South Africa • 9 Employees
Nonprofit Organization Management

The Institute serves those responsible for combating corrosion: scientists, engineers, anti-corrosion contractors and purveyors of corrosion resistant materials, as well as industrialists seeking to prolong life or preserve equipment. The interests of the Institute embrace the evaluation of a vast range of materials, including both metallic and non-metallic construction materials and corrosion protection methods. The impact of environmental conditions on the durability of materials is also considered. In addition to studying how materials corrode and how they can be protected, the Institute also continually stresses that the costs of corrosion can be minimised by good design and the appropriate application of existing technology.The Institute aims - to extend the recognition of corrosion as a problem requiring specialised attention.- to promote standardisation in corrosion technology.- to promote study and scientific research into corrosion and materials protection technology.- to promote the reporting, discussion and publication of corrosion experience and knowledge.- to enlist diverse membership so as to achieve reciprocal benefits between: - industries, governmental groups, individuals, educational bodies and academics.- to facilitate adequate training facilities for the corrosion protection of materials.- to recognise merit and reward persons who make a contribution towards corrosion technology.
