Paris hosts EUROCORR 2024: a step forward in research and awareness on corrosion issues

From September 1 to 5, corrosion specialists gathered in Paris for the EUROCORR 2024 conference, organized by the European Corrosion Federation (EFC) and the French Anticorrosion Centre (CEFRACOR). A glimpse into the work presented by the IFPEN teams at this event, under the slogan “A step forward in societal awareness of material degradation issues”. Just as the Paralympic Games were taking place in the capital, the EFC was also honoring the finest experts in the field.
