Both metallic and non-metallic materials can suffer from
degradation as a result of salt corrosion. In the case of metallic
materials, the mechanism is electromechanical, whereas non-metallic
materials can degrade due to chemical reactions with the
salt itself.
The correct choice of material and the use of protective coatings is
essential for extreme environments.
Through salt spray testing we are able to provide conditions which
considerably accelerate the corrosion process. This means that
results can be achieved in a short period of time.

Accelerated Corrosion testing can be used to check conformal
coatings on circuit boards, protective coatings of materials and
surface finishes as well as material compatibilities.
Our facilities enable provision of steady state exposure and can
combine salt spray periods with storage under damp heat
conditions. |
