Corrosion Projects Overview

Completed, ongoing and future corrosion related projects are discussed under each project's title as listed in Corrosion Research Projects, in the frame to the left. A summary of each research project is found on this page by clicking the URL for each project. The summary allows access to the project's Home Page which provides a detailed project description, including final or interim reports, researchers and collaborators, funding, publications and presentations. The detailed description includes hyperlinks to data, photographs and other relevant information. The final report, as submitted to the funding agency, is usually included as a PDF file.

Project Summaries

Atmospheric Corrosion in Mexico

The International Corrosion Research Program was initially formed in 1996 through collaboration between the researchers at Old Dominion University and two corrosion research laboratories in México. The main area of research involves investigation of the atmospheric corrosion of structural steels used in industrial and rural developing areas around the Gulf of México. Much of the research planning was performed through NSF Award # 9602990 (International Programs). The activities and findings of the research planning visit to México are summarized below, and includes a hyperlink to the detailed description of the collaborative US-Mexican projects.

The complete description of each research project can also be accessed through the Corrosion in Mexico Home Page,          which also includes other important research and corrosion information as well as photographs and discussions of our time spent traveling through Mexico.
