Eurocorr , the EFC’s annual conference focused in corrosion science was held in Seville (Spain) on September 9-13. Eurocorr has been, once again, the meeting point of the corrosion science community in which the latest advances in the field were shown by the most leading corrosion scientists worldwide.

During the metallic coating session, CIDETEC Surface Engineering researcher Asier Salicio Paz delivered the talk entitled “Microstructure, mechanical properties and tribo-corrosion behavior of electroless Ni-P functional multilayers”. Moreover, CIDETEC contributed with 2 posters related to its research in the tribo-corrosion behavior of metallic coatings and the corrosion performance of decorative chrome plated respectively.

Eurocorr 2019 has been a very successful event in which CIDETEC had the opportunity to show its latest developments in the field of corrosion protection and advance metallic coatings. It has also been a great opportunity for strengthening its relationship with leading corrosion scientist as well as with scientific associations and industry representatives attending  the event.

The CIDETEC Surface Engineering contribution:

Oral presentation: “Microstructure, mechanical properties and tribo-corrosion behavior of electroless Ni-P functional multilayers”, by Asier Salicio Paz.

Poster 1: “Understanding the different corrosion mechanism of micro-porous nickel-chromium coatings due to the presence of cupric ions in a chloride based electrolyte”.

Poster 2: “Tribocorrosion study of Ni/B electrodeposits with low B content: a mechanistic approach”.

During the event, Dr Eva García-Lecina, Director of CIDETEC Surface Engineering, had the opportunity to attend the EFC’s General Assembly Meeting.
