What is Corrosion and why does Corrosion Testing Matter?
Corrosion is a natural process that occurs in every material under certain environmental conditions, causing degradation of the material and, in turn, failure of critical equipment, products, and assets. These losses are expensive to remedy and could result in production downtime, environmental impact, and reputational damage. Corrosion testing is mission-critical to the design, development, and durability of metallic materials, components, and products.
