This Editor’s Note serves as an announcement that Dr. Martín A. Rodríguez recently became Co-Editor-in-Chief of Corrosion Reviews. Martín has a PhD degree in Materials Science and Technology from Instituto Sabato (UNSAM/CNEA), and he has been working on issues of corrosion and materials degradation since 2002 at the Atomic Energy Commission of Argentina. Martín received this year the Drisko Educator Award from the Association for Materials Protection and Performance (AMPP). The main research interests of Martín are in localized corrosion of passivating alloys, such as stainless steels and nickel alloys. Martín participated in two Round Robin programs from the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) that resulted in two successful new standards (G108 and G192). Since his student years Martín has been involved in the publication business, publishing extensively and, most importantly, acting as a superb reviewer. Martín resides in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I very much look forward to start working with Dr. Rodríguez as we continue to bring awareness to corrosion in publications for the education and benefit of society, the preservation of assets, and the protection of the environment.
This note also serves to inform that the current Corrosion Reviews issue is dedicated to disseminating selected articles from the Sixth International Workshop on Environmentally-assisted Cracking, held in Reston (Washington, DC, USA) in July 2023. The twelve contributions published here cover a wide range of issues and alloys that are troubled by the phenomenon of environmentally assisted cracking. These selected manuscripts were collected and reviewed by the organizers of this workshop.
