Additional Information:
Corrosion and wear can cause parts to fail with disastrous results. Protective coatings that are flawed, inadequate, or poorly chosen compound the problem by promoting a false sense of security. After 30 years spent analyzing environmental failures of parts and coatings with a world leader in coating technology, I can help you sort out the role of corrosion and wear in component failure. I hold more than a dozen patents on corrosion-resistant coatings, now specified on turbine engines and rotating industrial equipment and am well-versed in corrosion, wear and coating technologies.
