--()--NACE International:
MISSION STATEMENT: To protect people, assets, and the environment from the effects of corrosion.
CORROSION: Corrosion is the deterioration of a material due to a reaction with its environment. From underground water pipes to airplanes to oilfield equipment, corrosion is an undeniable force in our world today. According to the U.S. Cost of Corrosion Study produced by NACE and released by the U.S. Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in 2002, metallic corrosion cost the United States approximately $276 billion, or 3.1% of GDP. It is estimated that one-third of this cost is preventable with the application of current corrosion control technologies.
