National Materials Corrosion and Protection Scientific Data Center
Short description
The National Materials Corrosion and Protection Scientific Data Center is China’s major national repository for corrosion and protection data. Led by the University of Science and Technology Beijing, it supports national infrastructure development and strategic industries through long-term materials corrosion testing and data services.
The repository contains extensive standard reference data and long-term field test data covering multiple material categories, including ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, building materials, coatings, and polymers. It is described as China’s largest and most comprehensive database in the field of material corrosion.

Video tutorial
Illustrated guidance is available for navigating the platform and consulting the corrosion-related reference data provided online.
Access notes
The platform offers both Chinese and English interfaces, but the actual data catalog is only in Chinese. The available corrosion-related standard reference data can be viewed directly online without registration, but downloading is not supported.
Repository overview
The repository focuses specifically on corrosion and protection data rather than general research datasets. It includes long-term outdoor and indoor test data as well as standard and reference data relevant to materials performance in corrosive environments.
It supports a wide range of industries, including steel, machinery, aerospace, shipbuilding, petrochemicals, transportation, and defense.
