DMINISTRATIONMcIntyreAfter fourteen years as EFC Scientific Secretary, Paul has, with great regret, had to relinquish his post due to failing health. Following an earlier encounter with cancer in 2006 he was taken ill again while leading the UK delegation to the meeting of ISO Technical Committee 156 on Corrosion of Metals and Alloys in Suzhou, China, on 12-15 April 2010. To make matters worse, his return flight to the UK was delayed until 1 May by the eruption of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano in Iceland. Following his return, he was diagnosed with incurable cancer of the liver and right lung and has since been sustained by numerous

cycles of chemotherapy. Juliet Ippolito succeeded him as EFC Scientific Secretary on 1Paul McIntyre was only the second Scientific Secretary in the EFC’s fifty-six year history, the first having been Tony Mercer who was appointed in October 1982 to address the growing need for a Scientific Secretariat to deal with the scientific and technical aspects of the Federation’s work. At the time it was anticipated that Tony would serve for not more than three years before being replaced. However, it was soon recognised that considerable benefits were to be had from continuity of service and it was not until the end of 1996 that he relinquished Paul McIntyre Juliet Ippolito  EFC NEWSLETTERSEPTEMBER His principal role was to help in the development and coordination of the activities of the Science and Technology Advisory Committee (STAC) and the Working Parties. This, among many other things, distribution of agendas, working papers and minutes for the STAC, the preparation of the EFC Newsletter for publication and maintaining the register of EFC Event Numbers and the Calendar of Events. During Tony’s fourteen-year term in office the number of active EFC Working Parties grew by six with the establishment of WP10 (Microbial Corrosion), WP11 (Corrosion of Reinforcement in Concrete), WP12 (Computer Based Information Systems), WP13 (Corrosion in Oil and Gas Production), WP14 (Coatings), and WP15 (Corrosion in the Refinery Industry). In 1989, the EFC Series of publications was launched with Tony Mercer as the Series Editor. The first nineteen books in this highly-regarded Series were published before Tony retired and he continued to provide assistance with their preparation for several more years after his retirement. Following a total of 28 years as a specialist in corrosion and hydrogen assisted cracking in the UK steel and power industries, Paul McIntyre succeeded Tony Mercer as Scientific Secretary on 1st January 1997. Since then, scientific and technical activity has continued to increase and six more Working Parties have been established: WP17 (Automotive Corrosion); WP18 (Tribo-corrosion); WP19 (Corrosion of Polymer Materials); WP20 (Corrosion and Corrosion Protection in Drinking Water Systems) and WP21 (Corrosion of Corrosion of Archaeological and Historical Artifacts). Publishing activity has also grown and forty-one more of the famous ‘green’ books have appeared ove

Paul served under six EFC Presidents (Pier-Luigi Bonora, Philippe Berge, Don Harrop, Björn Linder, Michael Schütze, and Philippe Marcus) and three STAC Chairmen (Liv Lunde, Jörg Vogelsang, and Damien Féron). They have all contributed to the reinforcement of scientific and technical links with othesimilar to those of the EFC. As Scientific Secretary, Paul has been heavily involved in these activities and, between 2005 and 2010, he represented EFC at each of the annual NACE International Corrosion Conferences in the USA, where he manned the EFC booth and participated in meetings involving the Presidents and other senior personnel of both organisations. He has also acted on behalf of the EFC on the Board of Administrators of the World Corrosion Organisation and in the EU’s CORRCERT The position of Scientific Secretary is paid by the EFC on a part-time basis which left Paul time for nd, among other things, he Corrosion Engineering, Science and (formerly British Corrosion Journalfrom 1997 to 2006 at The Institute of Materials, Minerals and Mining in London and ran the Lifetime Management of Materials Service (formerly the National Corrosion Service) at the National Physical Laboratory in Teddington from 2005 to 2010. In recent years, the EFC has become aware of the need for greater activity in the field of public relations, particularly since it initiated the new category of Affiliate Membership which is available to companies and scientific organisations from anywhere in the world. Thought was being given to the appointment of a Public Relations Officer at about the time when Paul McIntyre announced that he would have to retire shortly. The decision was made, therefore, to include more public relations activity and less publishing content in the job description for his successor. The successful candidate from those short-listed for interviews was Juliet Ippolito of the University of Naples, Italy who is ideally suited to be ic Secretary. Her background is in Political Science and she has also organised a number of corrosion conferences and workshops in Europe on behalf of the U.S. Office of Naval Research Global (ONRG). Juliet has also been involved in the administration of three BRITE/EURAM 6Framework projects in the field of aeronautical engineering research and hapublications to her credit. H

Schütze of EFC WP3 “Corrosion in Hot Gases and Combustion Products” Publication date: March 2011Recent initiatives and developments in high temperature technology aim at the exploitation of fuels and processes at the edge of present materials capabilities, driving service temperatures higher and operating within ever more aggressive environmental conditions. The major driving force behind this trend is increased efficienvironmental protection. The key to reliable operation of components for sufficiently long service periods to a large extent lies in the high temperature properties of the materials used, with high temperature corrosion resistance as the major life and performance-limiting factor. As conventional alloy design invariably leads to a compromise between mechanical strength and corrosion resistance industry has turned to coatings to provide improved materials performance. Consequently there is extensive worldwide activity to develop high performance protective coating systems, to prevent or minimise damage by corrosion, as well as by abrasion, wear and erosion at elevated temperature. Many of these systems (which may consist of surface modified bulk materials or genuine coating systems and in some cases also of special alloy approaches) are based on systematic development starting from present theoretical understanding including laboratory data and ending up in tailor-made solutions for industrial applications. The present volume features the selected proceedings of an

Fedrizzi, W. Fürbeth and F. Montemor of EFC WP14 Publication date: March 2011All branches of industry have, for many decades, utilised organic coatings with active pigments. In most cases the pigments have included zinc dust, red lead oxide or chromates, the protective mechanisms of which are well understood. However, the use of lead and chromate-based coatings is no longer permitted, due mainly to their toxic and carcinogenic characteristics, respectively. This has stimulated much interest in the development of new environmentally-friendly coatings with active pigments that convey “self-healing” characteristics. The use of advanced primers containing “smart” self-healing pigments with up to four cooperative effects aims to provide enhanced corrosion resistance for steel or aluminium structures. This new publication was motivated by the highly successful workshop on self-healing coatings held on 12 September 2007 at the European Federation of Corrosion’s annual EUROCORR conference in Freiburg. It includes sixteen contributions, some of which were selected from the proceedings of the workshop (often in extended form) together with a number of specially invited articles and reviews. Among the coatings discussed are: organosilane films filled with nanoparticles and corrosion inhibitors; nanoparticle-containing polyaniline films; pyrrole-based silane primers; polypyrrole/ aluminium flake hybrid pigments; ZrO sol-gel films; cerium-containing silica methacrylate sol-gel coatings, and many others.

orrosion in sea water has been addressed recently in a major European Programme, CREVCORR. This work was coordinated by Bård Espelid of DNV (Norway) and involved collaboration between ten different companies in six European countries. Many members of EFC Working Party 9 (Marine Corrosion) participated in the work. The first nine chapters of the book describe the development of the new crevice corrosion test method for plate and tubular materials and its application to a number of austenitic, ferritic and duplex stainless steels. A key aim was to develop a crevice corrosion test procedure where the biological activity and oxidation capacity of natural and treated sea waters are simulated electrochemically.  EFC NEWSLETTERSEPTEMBER Another important aspect of the work was to formulate a new synthetic sea water capable of simulating the corrosiveness of natural and treated sea waters, including the effects of the bio-films that can form in natural waters. The final chapter presents the results of two large collaborative test programmes involving a total of 19 laboratories in eight countries worldwide. These involved tests in natural and synthetic sea waters to evaluate the new crevice test and synthetic sea water. The book will be of value to scientists and engineers engaged in the selection of stainless steels for applications in sea water and other chlorinated natural environments.HB, Print ISBN: 978 1 906540 99 9, 160pp., £120 / US$192 “Inter-Laboratory Study on Electrochemical Methods for the Characterisation of CoCrMo Biomedical Alloys in Simulated Edited by A. Igual Munoz and S. Mischler with the support of EFC WP18 “Tribocorrosion” Publication date: March 2011All metals and alloys are subject to corrosion when in contact with body fluid due to the presence of chloride ions and oxygen. Although the extent of corrosion is low because of the passive surface films usually present on surgical implants it has clinical consequences and there is a need for a better understanding of the process. An inter-laboratory study involving 15 laboratories from Europe and Japan has been undertaken under the auspices of the European Cooperation on Science and Technology (COST) 533 Project: Materials for Improved Wear Resistance of Total Artificial Joints. The aim of this work, which is being conducted with the support of EFC Working Party 18 on Tribocorrosion, is to evaluate the reproduc

ibility of the electrochemical test methods currently used to study the corrosion of biomaterials. A 65 % Co, 28 % Cr, 6 % Mo alloy was used for the collaborative investigation. Generally good qualitative agreement was obtained between the various participants. However, an important outcome of the study was that the present scientific understanding of CoCrMo corrosion is not sufficient to design electrochemical experiments for the reliable quantitative determination of corrosion rates in biological fluids. This important outcome highlights the need for improved electrochemical test methods, especially with regard to surface preparation, chemical and electrochemical pre-conditioning, solution aeration and data extraction. The book will be of great interest to everyone involved in the determination of potentiodynamic polarisation curves and electro-chemical impedance spectra.

It is imperative for performance assessment to predict the lifetime of these containers. In the lifetime prediction of metallic barriers for the disposal of high level nuclear waste (HLW) or of spent fuel, the presence of (reduced) sulphur species is an issue of growing importance, as the sulphur species are involved in localised corrosion phenomena. The international Sulphur-Assisted Corrosion in Nuclear Waste Disposal Systems (SACNUC2008) aimed to provide an exchange of information on the influence of sulphur species on the corrosion of metallic barriers. This workshop was a co-organisation of the Belgian Nuclear Research Centre, SCK•CEN, and the Belgian Agency for the Management of Radioactive Waste and Enriched Fissile Materials, ONDRAF/NIRAS, under the auspices of the European Federation of Corrosion (EFC event No overview of the disposal concepts of nuclear waste and the role of corrosion.

The publication is intended to contribute to continued and trouble free operation of pipelines hence enabling improved integrity of operations, safety and security of people, minimising adverse impact on the environment and enabling security and business success. r the Marine Environment-A Basic Guide” A joint publication with NACE International Many types of metallic materials are used in a wide range of applications in marine environments. Materials’ resistance against corrosion is vital for marine structural integrity and in order to avoid failure. In the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s much valuable knowledge in how to avoid corrosion in marine and seawater service offshore was gained. Much of this information was published in journals and conferences at the time, but it not readily found electronically. This knowledge decreased the risk for corrosion problems. However, during recent years it seems that corrosion problems are appearing again learned earlier. In order to gather basic information together, EFC’s WorkiCorrosion starting working on this book on the subject of corrosion in offshore and other marine environments, covering the common problems and how to avoid them. Early in the work it was obvious that it would be beneficial to broaden the work with participants from NACE International as well.
