ASTM B117 Testing
Applied Technical Services offers ASTM B117 testing services that determine the corrosion resistance qualities of metals and coated metals. Our accredited salt spray testing lab conducts accelerated corrosion testing that simulates real-world weather events and environmental conditions. We help manufacturers improve their quality control, material selection, and research and development processes.
Why is Salt Spray Testing, and Why is it Important?
Salt spray tests subject samples to corrosive conditions and environments, allowing experts to evaluate how various materials perform in specific conditions over specific periods of time. In general, salt spray tests consist of the following:
- Fog Chamber
- Sodium Chloride Solution
- Condition & Compressed Air
- Atomizing Nozzles
- Specimen Supports
- Heating Chamber Provisions
While the corrosion of metals may seem inevitable, high-saline environments accelerate the process and should be of particular concern for manufacturers. Fortunately, salt spray testing is a valuable tool for evaluating the anticorrosive properties of a material. Failure to conduct corrosion testing may result in visual changes, costly repairs, deformation, safety hazards, and premature failure.
ASTM B117 Testing
The American Society for Testing and Materials developed the ASTM B117 standard as a general outline for recommended practices concerning salt spray testing. The document establishes the parameters needed to sustain a salt spray test environment that yields accurate results.
