The IOM3 Corrosion Subgroup (formally the IOM3 Corrosion Committee) comprises a team of industry and academic professionals who support the needs of IOM3 members with specific interests in corrosion and its prevention. The Corrosion Subgroup aims to promulgate knowledge arising from advances in corrosion technology to the engineering community by means of seminars, conferences and publications etc. It has well established links with other UK and European bodies having similar interests in promoting the awareness of corrosion and protection, and covers a wide range of topics including education, developing relevant codes and standards, research, award nominations and raising public awareness of the costs associated with corrosion and benefits in preventative measures. The Corrosion Subgroup reports into the IOM3 Surface Technologies Group (formerly the IOM3 Surface Engineering Division) which represents the interests of those working with coatings, surface treatments and corrosion.
