Corrosion Testing
Corrosion is defined as an attack on a material as a result of chemical, frequently electrochemical reaction, with the surrounding medium. According to this definition, the term corrosion can be applied to all materials, including non-metals. But in practice, the word corrosion is mainly used in conjunction with metallic materials.
A wide variety of corrosion related tests is undertaken at W I Met-Lab Services Advanced to determine the susceptibility to Intergranular corrosion, pitting corrosion etc.
