Marcel Pourbaix Award
The ICC has traditionally presented the following awards in its congresses: Marcel Pourbaix Award, Edward Greco Award and Past Chairman Award.
The Marcel Pourbaix Award was established in April 20, 1995 at Brussels and approved by the ICC Council Meeting in Houston during the 12th ICC Congress. Awarded to corrosion scientists for outstanding contributions to international cooperation in the field of metallic corrosion. It was first presented in Brussels in April 1995 and the medals given to the winners up to 2002 were provided by the Australasian Corrosion Association. New medals provided by CEBELCOR have been presented since 2008.
