New Webinar Available! Learn how to compy with the NEW standards for corrosion protection.
In July, Corrdesa’s Dr. Alan Rose joined Knovel for the webinar, Complying with the New Standard of Corrosion Protection, to talk about significant changes to the MIL-STD-889 covering dissimilar metals and galvanic corrosion. In this webinar, Dr. Rose explains the latest findings which show that galvanic corrosion is best determined by galvanic current between materials, not by potential difference. He also reviewed key changes in the dissimilar metals and galvanic corrosion standard (MIL-STD-889C), currently in development. Learn how to comply with the new standards of corrosion protection. You can access the Webinar at the link below.

“Can we win the race to replace hex chrome before the REACH authorizations run out?”
Most REACH Authorizations only extend to 2024, and it is quite possible that some Authorizations may be struck down by the European Court of Justice well before then (as one already has)…. Find out more by attending Dr. Keith Legg’s talk at the Colloque Aerotechnique conference in Montreal at 11:15 am on Wednesday Oct 16.

Live Webinar | 17 October 2019 | 2 Sessions Available
‘Tackling the trillion-dollar problem of corrosion and aircraft durability in harsh conditions’.
Led by Durrel Rittenburg and our own Alan Rose- learn how a combined CFD and corrosion tool kit analysis can help achieve more robust designs. They will demonstrate how early design analysis can help engineering make better decisions mitigating potentially costly corrosion problems before they happen.

Why we use Siemens STAR-CCM+
By connecting the Corrdesa electrochemical database with Siemens STAR-CCM+ we can now assess corrosion risk using 3D models – enabling us to continue tackling the huge and costly corrosion issues.
Watch this video to find out more about how and why we use this fantastic tool

Introducing Dalistick Non-drip selective anodizing for on-aircraft repair
Corrdesa is the US distributor for Dalic, the French company that invented the non-drip plating and anodizing technology, which uses a closed-loop system to selectively anodize or electroplate, even overhead. The nondrip technology uses airflow to hold the electrolyte in the plating tool and on the surface, avoiding the need for seals or dams. Find out more about the tool here or contact us!
At MRO Americas we’re showing how the latest non-drip brush plating technology ensures low waste, low emissions but the highest product quality. The machines can be used on-aircraft in small spaces and overhead areas, without chemicals dripping onto equipment, operators, or the floor.
04/10/2019
We're ready for MRO Americas in Atlanta, GA
Between April 9th and 11th, come along to booth 110 to find out more about the Dalistick D.1000! If you are unable to attend, click here and contact us with any questions!

Corrdesa attended NACE 2019
Whilst in Nashville at Corrosion 2019, Corrdesa gave many demonstrations of Corrosion Djinn and provided new connections with free trials to try back in their own environment. It has never been easier to explore possible coating protection options for product designs. We are looking forward to receiving their feedback soon.
Attending NACE Corrosion 2019 was a great experience and gave us the opportunity to demonstrate our quick, accurate galvanic corrosion prediction tool – Corrosion DjinnTM. Our presentations were well attended and can be found on our resources page.
04/02/2019
We are all set up for NACE Corrosion 2019 in Nashville, Tennessee.
Between March 25th and March 28th, come along to booth 2648 for a demonstration of Corrosion Djinn and receive a free trial!

Galvanic Corrosion Protection: Those Old Galvanic Potential Tables Are Finally Being Replaced
The galvanic potential tables people have been using for years often give the wrong answer. Now the U.S. Navy is taking a new approach and updating MIL-STD-889, the galvanic corrosion standard, replacing galvanic charts and tables with corrosion rate calculations. What does this mean for industry?
Have a read of our white paper to find out more about the changes to MIL-STD-889. The paper can be accessed here.

The Simcenter conference was very interesting, providing a great opportunity to learn more about the present software tools and also the trends in future development. One key takeaway for Corrdesa was the presentation on ‘Design Manager’ – this is a very powerful tool allowing easy setup of many simulations to more thoroughly explore the design space. So now we have changed out engineering workflow to think in more of a stochastic framework of many simulations and ranges of parameters instead of deterministic simulations of one scenario after the other. This approach really leverages the power of our computing cluster and provides much more optimum solutions to our clients.
Alan’s corrosion simulation presentation was very well received with many questions and follow-up meetings. Much of the Siemens Simcenter community were unaware of the existence of the electrochemical modules within CCM+ and in particular the advances made in corrosion prediction.
The presentation is available here showing how the ‘1D’ approach of Corrdesa Corrosion Djinn can be leveraged to assess corrosion risks in materials selection and then further refinement made in more complex designs with the use of CCM+ employing the Corrdesa electrochemical database
