2000 Gordon Research Conference on Aqueous Corrosion, July 23-27, 2000, Colby Sawer College, New London, New Hampshire

9987686风暴2000年戈登水腐蚀研究会议定于2000年7月23日至27日在新伦敦的科尔比索耶学院举行。会议上的演讲涵盖了广泛的腐蚀相关主题，但都属于会议主题：“下一个千年的腐蚀研究;可靠性和寿命预测。“本次会议邀请了18位演讲嘉宾。演讲者包括腐蚀领域的知名人士，现在做出尖端贡献的年轻新人，以及参与腐蚀研究但不是腐蚀界主流的科学家。演讲者来自学术界、国家实验室和工业界。讨论领导者涉及对戈登研究会议形式有经验的会议主题有深入了解的高级人员。 它们显示出有能力在广大听众的参与下激发对关键问题的热烈讨论。演讲者和讨论负责人的人口统计组合反映了腐蚀领域工作人员的全球社区。%腐蚀并不是一个新的领域，但它仍然是一个具有极端技术和经济重要性以及科学活力的领域。腐蚀的年度成本（占美国GNP的百分比）由于我们对该领域的基本理解而制定的一系列措施而有所下降。与物理科学的许多领域一样，由于公司更加关注短期问题，腐蚀研究的工业资金已经减少。然而，目前学术界对基础研究的资助相当强劲，美国和世界其他地区的大学都开展了积极的活动。采用最新技术的新方法正被用于解决长期存在的问题，例如用更有效和环保的替代品取代防腐涂层中的铬酸盐。这种活力反映在受邀参加本次戈登研究会议的发言者名单中。

9987686StormThe 2000 Gordon Research Conference on Aqueous Corrosion is scheduled for July 23-27, 2000 at Colby Sawyer College in New London, NH. Presentations at the conference cover a wide range of corrosion-related topics, but all fall under the conference theme: 'Corrosion Research in the Next Millennium; Reliability and Lifetime Prediction.' The conference features 18 invited lectures. The speakers include well-established and long-standing names in the field of corrosion, younger newcomers now making cutting-edge contributions, and scientists who are involved in corrosion research but not in the mainstream of the corrosion community. There are speakers from academia, national laboratories, and industry. Discussion leaders involve senior people with in-depth knowledge of the session topic that are experienced in the Gordon Research Conference format. They have demonstrated ability to stimulate vigorous discussion of the key issues with broad audience participation. The demographic mix of speakers and discussion leaders reflect that of the worldwide community of people working in the field of corrosion.%%%Corrosion is not a new field, but it continues to be an area of extreme technological and economic importance, as well as scientific vitality. The annual cost of corrosion (as a percentage of the US GNP) has decreased as a result of a range of measures that has developed from our fundamental understanding of the field. Like many fields in the physical sciences, industrial funding for corrosion research has decreased as companies put more focus on short-term problems. However, the current funding for fundamental research in academia is quite strong, with vigorous activities existing in universities across the US and the rest of the world. New approaches using the latest in technology are being applied to long-standing problems, such as the replacement of chromates in corrosion-protective coatings with more effective and environmentally friendly alternatives. This vigor is reflected in the list of speakers invited to participate in this Gordon Research Conference.***
