The DoD functions under a wide array of infrastructure to include, but not limited to, ships, tanks, combat vehicles and buildings. Due to the nature and need of the building materials, these are always at risk for corrosion, causing the infrastructure to literally crumble. This obviously puts Soldiers in harm’s way due to issues such as weapon misfiring and structural failures.

Utility scale solar array construction projects continue to grow in number annually. Large open spaces with consistent UV exposure often make excellent locations for solar array fields, however these sites do not always provide ideal soil conditions for the steel H beam pile supports which are embedded into the ground.
The U.S. Air Force will never eliminate corrosion in aerospace systems, but synchronized efforts can help sustain positive trends in conserving maintenance dollars, increasing system availability, and reducing corrosion-related mishaps. The AF Corrosion Control and Prevention Executive established an aggressive goal to reduce corrosion’s effects by 20% by 2025: a 20% reduction in corrosion maintenance costs; a 20% reduction in non-available hours (NAH) due to corrosion repairs; and a 20% reduction in corrosion-related safety mishaps.
HISTORICAL DOCUMENT. Corrosion prevention and control (CPC): • Attributes of product, system or facility. • Material selection and design. • Relevant topics. • Design, fabrication, construction, operations, maintenance & sustainability.
The Society for Preventive Coatings (SSPC) has been an essential partner with the Department of Defense in the fight against corrosion for nearly 10 years. Since 2003, SSPC’s leadership and expertise in corrosion management, prevention and control has been a very important factor in our success at combating the insidious and pervasive effects of corrosion on our facilities and equipment.
Revised in 2020! This standard on corrosion prevention and control (CPC) planning is intended to support future CPC improvements to national acquisition and sustainment of equipment, systems, facilities, and infrastructure at an acceptable cost. It provides a standardized framework for a supplier’s plan to control corrosion of supplied products and structures. The standard is intended for use by public and private facility owners/acquisition agencies that require their suppliers to provide corrosion prevention and control procedures as a deliverable provided with the purchased product, installation, or system. The standard includes:

It is well known that corrosion has a significant impact on sustainment, system costs, and system availability to the warfighter. Mitigating such impacts is one of the greatest drivers to DoD Science &Technology (S&T) requirements and therefore research programs.
Translational science itself is not a new scientific process. Since investigative science experiments were established and results measured, basic and applied science has been translated into useful applications. However, science has not always been investigative or effectively translated into useful applications. And when it has, the translation often consumed a significant amount of time and faced considerable implementation obstacles.
