Belgian Welding Institute (BWI) has a well equiped lab to perform several standardised tests (ASTM, EN ISO or other).
As a standard test does not always represent the real in-service conditions, we will be happy to assist you in developing a test tailored to your application.
Expertise
Accelerated corrosion test in an aggressive (salt) environment.
Test to determine the corrosivity of material to comply with the CLP-regulation (Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008) on classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures.
Immersion testing allows us to compare resistance of certain alloys in a specific environment by means of e.g. the loss of mass.
Evaluate the resistance of a sample to pitting corrosion or crevic corrosion trough standardised tests (ASTM G48 or ASTM G78).
Standardised tests according to standard ASTM A262 or EN ISO 3651.
Both temperature and climate testing can be performed in the climate chamber.
Electrochemical tests can quickly give information on the corrosion resistance of a metal.
The set-up with the O-ring evaluates the resistance of a certain material type to stress corrosion cracking.
Determine the sensitivity of coated aluminium to filiform corrosion.
Coating-thickness measurement, cross-cut, pull-off.
