Title: (2nd international symposium on high-temperature corrosion of advanced materials and coatings, Les Embiez, France, May 22--26, 1989): Foreign trip report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6124606

The traveler participated in the 2nd International Symposium on High-Temperature Corrosion of Advanced Materials and Coatings and presented an invited paper. He chaired a session on High-Temperature Corrosion. The symposium covered 11 themes over 4-1/2 days. There were two sessions each day, one in the morning and one in the evening, with afternoons devoted to poster sessions. This provided opportunities for the participants to have private discussions on topics of mutual interest. About 180 participants from the European Economic Community countries, Brazil, Canada, Japan, Republic of China, USA, and USSR attended the symposium. The presentations included papers on high-temperature corrosion and oxidation (44), coatings (35), ion-beam and laser-modified surfaces (20), hot corrosion (14), scale adherence and stresses in the scales (7) diffusion (3), erosion/corrosion (3), synergism between corrosion and mechanical properties (10), intermetallics (4), and industrial experience (5). Most of the presentations involved corrosion/oxidation of Fe-, Ni- and Co-base alloys and coatings with and without reactive element additions that are of interest to fossil energy programs of ORNL and DOE. The traveler had private discussions with other participants. 1 tab.
