The serious consequences of corrosion on infrastructure have become a problem of worldwide concern. This material degradation is seen every day as corrosion causes plant shutdowns, the waste of valuable resources, loss and contamination of product, reduction in efficiency, and costly maintenance. Corrosion can also jeopardize safety and inhibit technological progress. This program looks at what scientists are doing to develop stronger materials that can stand the test of time and environmental conditions.
