 corrosion - salt spray & humidity cabinets, solar corrosion
One of the many tests described in International Standards for evaluating the corrosion performance of a material is the long-established Salt Spray Test. Developed several decades ago with the aim of simulating a corrosive marine environment, the procedure has, over the years, become a key tool for predicting the performance of a coating. It is now one of the standard references used in industry today.
Modern quality demands and new research have shown that the results of these tests can be optimised when the salt spray is combined with other methods, which may be of a cyclical nature or more aggressive. Elcometer have a wide range of products that can be used to determine corrosion resistance of a coating to salt spray , humidity , corrosive gases , immersion and the aging effects of sunlight . |
