Accelerated corrosion testing (ACT) is used to test the resistance of metals and coated products / structures to atmospheric corrosion in marine and chloride-containing environments. The representative accelerated corrosion tests are the salt spray test (SST), which uses a continuous salt water spray (salt fog), and the cyclic corrosion test (CCT), which repeats salt fog, drying, and humidity steps.
Our corrosion experts follow international testing standards and protocols such as ASTM, and ISO. We can assist you with selecting the correct corrosion test method, evaluating results, material selection, corrosion assessments, recommending efficiencies and preventative mitigation measures.
Through expert analysis of simulation exposure data, we help our customers to reduce the future risk of corrosion damage to components, pipelines and other critical infrastructure assets.Â
