The founder of the science of protecting materials from corrosion, aging and bio-damage in Soviet Russia is Georgy Vladimirovich Akimov, who created the infrastructure for climate testing of materials and products. Currently, his students and followers have discovered new directions for the development of climatic and microbiological tests – these are studies of the preservation of the properties of materials in complex technical systems under the influence of climatic factors, mold fungi, bacteria and operational loads using the most modern methods at the sites of the created network of climate test stations, as well as using modern regulatory documentation.
