Centre for Corrosion Technology
Degradation resulting from corrosion processes is an issue which has implications for the integrity, serviceability and aesthetics of materials and components.
The Centre for Corrosion Technology (CCT) was founded by its director, Professor Robert Akid, in 1988 to provide research and business support expertise concerning the implication of materials operating within corrosive environments. Since moving to Sheffield Hallam University in 1999, the Centre has expanded and its sphere of expertise has become more diverse, through engagement with industry and EU and UK research council funded projects.
CCT is part of the Materials and Engineering Research Institute (MERI), within the Faculty of Arts, Computing, Engineering and Sciences. Its position within MERI allows the Centre to provide a multidisciplinary approach to solving problems concerning corrosion-related failure of materials.
Further information on the Centre, its facilities, research and business support activities can be found on the links from this page.
