This RIP symposium is encouraging abstracts about current research and continuing efforts to study localized corrosion, and in particular, pitting, crevice, and intergranular corrosion. These types of localized corrosion are some of the most destructive degradation mechanisms affecting metallic components in industrial sectors such as energy, transportation, infrastructure, and defense. The focus of this RIP will primarily be on the initiation and propagation mechanisms of these localized corrosion attack modes as a function of the environment, materials (conventional and advanced alloys), and associated mechanisms. Abstract topics may include, but are not limited to, experimental programs related to localized corrosion; electrochemical characterization of pitting, crevice or intergranular corrosion; modelling/localized corrosion process simulations; and the metallurgical and environmental contribution factors to localized corrosion. Abstracts addressing new detection techniques, mitigation approaches, and predictive approaches are welcome. Submissions should include the latest research findings and ongoing investigations. All abstracts and presentations must be non-commercial. No sales pitches allowed!
