An important activity of the NACE-NBS Corrosion Data Program is standards development related to corrosion database structuring. Guidelines have been established to assure uniformity of terminology, compatibility with other material property databases and data inputs required to characterize the wide assortment of material/environment interactions that need to be considered to meet a variety of user interests. Consideration is also given to identification of minimum data input requirements to reliably characterize exposure conditions and material performance. These criteria, in turn, can be considered as a basis for data acceptance or rejection, identification of specific needs for additional supplier input, for data quality classification schemes and for defining requirements for standardized test methods.
