IIMS and BSSA to deliver a second special one day seminar in Amsterdam entitled Marine Corrosion


and its Prevention Following the huge success of the first corrosion seminar delivered by Mike Lewus, British Stainless Steel Association, which attracted nearly 60 delegates in January, IIMS has decided to run the programme again in Amsterdam on 27th November. The day’s seminar programme will be delivered at the Park Inn by Radisson near Amsterdam Schiphol Airport commencing at 09.00. Delegates who cannot be there in person may join online live via Zoom.


What will you learn?


– Recap on fundamental corrosion principles including, driving force for electrochemical activity and principles of galvanic corrosion


– An understanding of the corrosion mechanisms that undermine the performance of stainless steel and other ‘marine metals’ and associated metrics


– An appreciation of what environmental factors influence corrosion above and below the waterline and how this impacts material selection


– Consider how to minimise corrosion through material selection, improved design and other strategies i.e. cathodic protection, changing electrode potential, surface treatments etc.


– Become familiar with important aspects of failure analysis; inspection, sample preparation, analytical techniques and diagnostic methodologies


The day’s course will be delivered in six modular sections as follows:


1) Corrosion: Fundamental Principles 2) Forms of corrosion in ‘marine metals’ 3) Corrosion above the waterline 4) Corrosion below the waterline 5) Corrosion prevention strategies 6) Failure analysis and case studies
