EUROCORR 2024

EUROCORR was the main scientific event for the whole consortium to deliver the scientific progress in the active protection coating development and the OIP use. The consortium has delivered 10 scientific contributions for different sessions of the EURORR Congress 2024. We organized and let a Joining session and a Round Table on “Multi-scalemodelling for design of protective coatings” and collected ideas, requests and open questions from academia and industry on importend scientific challenged in corrosions science, technology and engeneering.

The event attracted over 80 attendees. VIPCOAT consirtium members contributed also activily to the business meeting of Working Party 22 “Corrosion Control in Aerospace”.

16 scientists represented the consortium at the congress. They presented research achievements of the third year of the project. Some new results have been mentioned in the plenary lecture “Machine learning assisted performance optimization of corrosion inhibitors and active protective coatings“ given by Arjan Mol.

The scientific contributions and achivements of VIPCOAT consortium was recognized by Mikhail Zheludkevich at Cavallaro Medal Lecture at EUROCORR2024 on September 1 in Paris, France.

Theodor Hack, a member of the VIPCOAT consortium from 2021 till 2023, and an External Advisory Board member now, has received EFC Honorary Fellow Award. We warmly congratulate Theo on this award!

Great success and novel scientific results have been demonstrated by VIPCOAT project
partners at EUROCORR2024.
