NACE STANDARDS Dept. of Metallurgy and Materials Engineering University of Indonesia
NACE International Facts • Founded by a group (11 engineer) of pipeliners in 1943, then expanded into other industries • As of 2008, there are approximately 20,312 NACE members world wide • Non-Profit Organization • Volunteer/Member Driven • The “Forum” for Corrosion • The World’s Largest Corrosion Association
What is NACE A technical and educational association dedicated exclusively to the prevention and control of corrosion of all materials.
NACE Mission To protect people, assets, and the environment from the effects of corrosion GOALS • Support the strategies in the Cost of Corrosion Study • To be recognized as the premier coatings society • Develop a growing and vibrant membership by exceeding expectations • Dramatically raise the world’s awareness and understanding of the effects of corrosion
NACE International Fact • 17,000+ Members in 100 Countries • 300+ Corporate Members • 400+ Publications • 350 Technical Committees • 200+ Standards and reports • 250+ Education courses offered • Nearly 12,000 people hold a NACE certification
NACE is organized into four Areas in North America and four Regions outside the continent

Ballot Procedures • Canvass distributed • Asks members of sponsoring STGs if they wishto vote on a standard • 30-day response time • Ballot distributed • 6-week ballot period; 50% response from distribution list required
Reaffirmation, Revision, Withdrawal • All standards reviewed every five years and reaffirmed, revised, or withdrawn • Must be completed every five years • Begin review 1 to 2 years before 5-year date
Types of NACE Standards • Recommended Practices (NACE-RP) • Test Methods (NACE-TM) • Materials Requirements (NACE-MR) • NACE/SSPC Standards – collaboration with SSPC (Society of Protective Coating) • NACE Emergency Guideline
Recommended practices include recommended methods of selection, design, installation, maintenance, or operation of material or system where corrosion is a factor. • In addition, some recommended practices focus on details of construction of a corrosion control system; methods of treating the surface of materials to reduce corrosion; requirements for using devices to reduce corrosion; and procedures for increasing the effectiveness, safety, and economic benefits of an installation or system.
Test methods are tests related to corrosion prevention and control. This type of standard can give the method of conducting tests to ascertain the characteristics of a material, design, or operation. • Material requirements state the necessary characteristics of a material where corrosion is a factor in the selection, application, and maintenance of the material.
Alphanumeric indicate the class of standard, the number indicate first year publication and year publication of current version • Ex RP 0472-200 (Recommended Practice No.4, first issue in 1972, current version 2000) • Cover page will explain the standard re affirmed and follow full approval history document
