CORRODYS is an expert lab in corrosion assessment and studies, especially in marine corrosion and microbially influenced corrosion.

CORRODYS is a partner of industries worldwide and has a unique organisation gathering in a same facility, 3 synergistic competencies: corrosion engineers, microbiologists and physics and chemistry scientists.
 
CORRODYS :
 
- expertises failures in industrial systems
- guides you in your choices of materials, coatings, corrosion inhibitors, biocides and design of systems subject to corrosion
- brings its help to reduce you operational capital and increase safety and long-life of your facilities


To increase, renew and maintain its competencies and its know-how and to comply entirely to its research programs scientific level requirements, CORRODYS is a partner of the University of Caen and the French nuclear scientific authority CEA

CORRODYS Scientific Committee is composed of scientists, professors and lecturers from the University of Caen and from CORRODYS.


CORRODYS is member of :

- Gican
- Cefracor
- Le Cluster maritime français
- Propeller Club of United States

Analyses
 
- metallographic analyses
- microbiologic analyses, necessary to identify microbial corrosion
- physics and chemistry analyses
 
Expert’s opinion
 
- our corrosion experts go onsite to evaluate the root cause of a failure due to corrosion: they check all parameters: operational historic, pictures, material and water sampling , analyses, expert opinion report and solutions proposal
 
Testing according international standards: ISO, ASTM, NACE… or tailor-made tests according to the specifications:
 
- materials: validation of their capacity to meet the requirements in their industrial environment: seawater, freshwater, industrial water, salt spay…
- coatings: validation of their quality in seawater or other environment:  cathodic disbondment testing (ISO 20344, ASTM G95-07…) salt spray testing (ISO 9227, ASTM, NACE…)
- biocides: evaluation of their efficacy against microorganisms and inocuity for materials
- corrosion inhibitors: testing of their efficacy against corrosion and inocuity for the environment
 
Research and development
 
CORRODYS is a leader or a partner in 2 European research programs : MICSIPE and EFFORTS.
Our lab is also involved in joint innovative programs.
