Event supported by Research Institutes of Sweden, Institut de la Corrosion (France), University of Parma (Italy), and European Federation of Corrosion (EFC). PROGRAMME Time Session Registration 8:45 Introduction Welcome speech 9:05 Symposium opening – Dominique Thierry (RISE) 9:10 Soil corrosion Insight of the corrosion mechanisms in soil: key parameters and application cases – Mathieu Debure […]

Development of test capabilities in liquid and gasous ammonia and cryogenic temperatures at the French Corrosion Institute – Saint Etienne Site. Several jacketed autoclaves and test cells are available for specimens exposure in liquid amonia below -35°C. Gas NH3 gas permeability at low temperature is also possible. The comissionning of a new test room for ammonia testing is ongoing.

Commissioning of a new test room dedicated to material testing under hydrogen pressure at The French Corrosion Institute – Saint-Etienne site. New equipments have been invested to extend the pressure range we can investigate, to allow for testing in contaminated gas (mainly in presence of H2S) and offer new test methods applicable in research projects […]

The French Corrosion Institute continues developing R&D and test services for material resistance evaluation under gaseous hydrogen pressure. In addition to our standard test capabilities, we can also adapt to specific requirements and develop “on-demand” test method. In this example, we have produced for one of our client, a “fit-for-purpose” test bench capable to simulate the exposure of tubing to pressure cycles […]

The French Corrosion Institute and RISE together with the Member Research Consortium ‘Corrosion Properties of Coil-coated Products’ are organizing the 5th International Symposium ‘ Corrosion of Prepainted Materials’. It will be held on May 31st, 2023 in the beautiful city of Stockholm (Sweden) in Van Den Nootska Palatset. The symposium will feature presentations by selected […]

New Training sessions in Cathodic Protection for Seawater application sector in October 2021 for levels 2 and 3 Registration forms available on the website (Activities / Training)

The site of Saint-Etienne is currently modifying its capabilities to allow test under H2 pressure. Experiments under static (constant load, permeation) and dynamic loading (Slow Strain Rate Test, Incremental Step loading) were already succesfully implemented up to 100 bar 

In the frame of a projects leaded by CETIM (French R&D Center for Mechanical Industries) and after long-term collaborations with Institut de la Corrosion, new very high-pressure capabilities (up to 1000 bar) have been implemented at Saint-Etienne – Total surface 50 m² / 6 autoclaves – Dedicated for a specific project at least during the […]
