Moments
By Dave Allmand, Coating Inspector Program Chair

M
y grandson is on a baseball
scholarship at his university.
Like so many of us, he too
has had dreams of greatness where
he hits the grand-slam home run in
the bottom of the 9th inning to win
the game. Maybe sports moments
were not among your dreams;
maybe you dreamed of address-
ing parliament with such a rousing
speech that you actually changed
the course of history. Possibly you
dreamed of medical studies where
you created a gene-altering vaccine
that cures cancer. No matter who
you are, at some time in life. you’ve
likely had dreams of that big life-­
altering moment.
I’ve come to realize that we don’t just
live in those “big” important moments
that we are always looking for. Typically,
we make only a few great or grand deci-
sions in our lives. Like the vast majority
of mankind, I probably won’t have a
biography written about me! Reality is
that we live in the little moments, so our
character and who we are as individu-
als is not set by those three or four big
moments. It’s set by those tens of thou-
sands of little moments that build our
character and reveal who we really are.
I previously wrote asking you to get
involved in the committee process
within NACE International—the techni-
cal committees, Specific Technology
Groups, activity committees, and Task
Groups where so much of the real work
of NACE takes place. This is work that
makes a daily difference in our working
process. When I was just a child, in the
winter my father would take me hunting.
I remember so well my struggles, trudg-
ing through the snow, trying to keep up

with my father and brother. Suddenly
I would begin to find that my way was
not so difficult after all. It was about that
time that I noticed my father had begun
to shrink his stride, taking smaller and
smaller steps so I could more easily
follow by walking in his steps. Look-
ing back at my life in this industry, I
also remember seeing so many of my
mentors who could have run ahead, but
NACE International Celebrates
75 Years in 2018
A
s the corrosion control
industry has developed and
grown, NACE International
established itself early on as an or-
ganization committed to controlling
and preventing corrosion. From its
beginnings as a small group of engi-
neers focused on cathodic protec-
tion (CP) to address metal pipeline
degradation, NACE has evolved
into a worldwide organization that is
involved in every industry and area
Members conduct a protective coatings exercise in 1956.

intentionally took small steps to allow so
many of us to walk in success because
of their labor. Today, I’m asking again for
your involvement.
All of us working together within the
committee process will make a differ-
ence for years to come. Begin today to
volunteer—your strong character and
sharing of moments will make a big
difference for tomorrow. Take a look at
of corrosion prevention and control,
from oil and gas and water systems
to marine, transportation, and infra-
structure protection.
This year the association celebrates
its 75th Anniversary, a milestone made
possible by the knowledge, expertise,
and continued support of its members
and other corrosion professionals from
around the globe. As it has in the past,
NACE continues to advance education
and training, technical discussions, publi-
cations, and standards development and
advocate corrosion control as part of its
mission to equip society to protect peo-
ple, assets, and the environment from the
adverse effects of corrosion.
Education and Training
The critical need for education and
training programs to benefit anyone
involved in corrosion prevention and
control was recognized
early on by NACE leaders.
One of the first educational
efforts sponsored by NACE
was a 1949 short course at
the University of Texas at
Austin, which was designed
for people who dealt with
corrosion problems in
industry but did not have
the background or expe-
rience to do so efficiently.
NACE developed its first
formal education course in
the late 1960s—Basic Cor-
rosion—which was initially
offered as a correspon-
dence course. The material
was then formatted as a
four-day course and first

also for those who will follow along in
your footsteps.

offered by the Houston Section in 1971.
Throughout the years, NACE devel-
oped many more programs and courses
focusing on such areas as CP, protective
coatings and linings, materials selec-
tion and design, refining, and corrosion
fundamentals. Several are now avail-
able online and in other languages. The
world-renowned Coating Inspector
Program (CIP) was developed in the
early 1980s in response to a request
from Group Committee T-6 on Protec-
tive Coatings for a certification program
to upgrade the coatings industry. By
1985, NACE changed the terminology in
its older accreditation programs to cer-
tification and began adding certification
in specialty fields. All categories have
requirements for work experience in the
field of corrosion and passing examina-
tions as well as signing a NACE attesta-
tion concerning professionalism.
Multiple courses are taught every
week throughout the world in NACE
facilities—primarily the Elcometer
Building in Houston, Texas that accom-
modates more than 3,000 students per
year—and company in-house locations.
In 2014, NACE opened a 4,000 ft2 (372
m2) training center in Dubai, U.A.E. offer-
ing the entire suite of NACE courses.
Hundreds of students from the area and
surrounding countries are taking advan-
tage of the local center.
In 2012, NACE established the NACE
International Institute (NII) to establish
an organization focused on certification
activities and to further advance the
corrosion profession. The institute sup-
ports growth and quality of certification
for the corrosion control field, improving
the business conditions of the indus-
 Spring 2018 | Issue 1
try, and advancing knowledge through
certification programs that promote
public safety, protect the environment,
and reduce the economic impact of
corrosion. The NII also leads its certi-
fication programs toward compliance
with the ISO standard for certification
bodies (ISO 17024). Today, it administers
23 certifications plus the CIP endorse-
ments. There are more than 35,000
NACE certification holders worldwide.
Other areas of NACE that have grown
and flourished over the years include
Technical Activities, Conferences and
Exhibits, Publications, Public Affairs, and
the NACE Foundation. As the structure
of NACE has grown and changed over
its 75-year history, one thing remains
the same—NACE is driven by its mem-
members provide valuable oversight
and input to ensure that the association
best serves its diverse membership.
NACE leadership is continually involved
in strategic planning to address the
association’s direction and define its
goals and objectives for years to come.
To commemorate NACE’s 70th
anniversary in 2013, the NACE Past
Presidents Council compiled a complete,

Water and
Paints
W
ater-based coatings are
environmentally compat-
ible but they have one
drawback—microorganisms such as
bacteria can reproduce in the water
and paints used and then adversely
affect the quality of surface coating.
Typically, biocides have been used
to control these bacteria. Now, a
sterilization process for industrial
water and paints that uses electric
impulses is being developed to
address this issue. The program
is funded by the German Federal
Ministry of Education and Research
and coordinated by researchers at
Karlsruhe Institute of Technology
(Karlsruhe, Germany).
The new electric impulse technol-
ogy, which focuses on both surface
treatment for the automotive industry
(cathodic immersion painting) and appli-
cations for general industry (coating of
industrial goods by anodic immersion
painting), works without chemical addi-
tives, reduces water consumption, and
contributes to water protection. When
cells or microorganisms are exposed
to an electric field, the cell membrane
is polarized, which means that electric
poles form and aqueous pores open.
This eventually results in the death of
the microorganisms. As the electric
impulses impart a purely physical effect,
bacteria are not expected to develop
resistances, as they do in the case of
biocides.
Technology is being integrated into
a new, automated, resource-efficient
water management and plant concept
for pretreatment and immersion paint-
ing. To learn more, visit www.kit.edu.
