Case Study Abstracts

Due to popular demand, in addition to our technical papers, the Case Study paper option will return for 2026. Case studies, such as reports on field trials and the use of new and/or novel technologies for corrosion prevention and protection are an important part of knowledge exchange for the corrosion industry.

All papers (technical/research papers and case studies) will be subject to the standard paper review process. A technical paper template and case study template will be released in late February.
