Old metallurgists don't die........they just rust in peace.

Corrosion is the fate of all metals and some non-metals. As soon as a metal is 'won' from its ore, it begins to revert back to its oxidised state again.Corrosion testing is vital in establishing why, when and how everything corrodes.

• Key Benefits
  The rate of corrosion will establish how long the part will last
• Prevent corrosion by finding out what chemical is causing it
• Find new corrosion resistant treatments
• Experiment with dissimilar metals and galvanic protection methods

We have a range of corrosion tests to suit your needs.

• Salt spray cabinets of various types Environmental chambers, hot/cols and dry/humid
• Combined cycle programmes to simulate various exposures
• Acid attack exposure
• Wet corrosion and hot soak tests
• Galvanic corrosion, cell measurements and induced potentials
• Deliberately aggresssive tests eg ASTM A262 Practice E etc.
• Specialist chambers for unique applications, built to order.
