Corrosion Services
We provide services in the following areas:
- Corrosion Consulting and Training – Providing consulting services to industries on corrosion-related issues, offering expertise in corrosion prevention techniques, and conducting training programs to educate personnel about corrosion management and prevention.
- Failure Analysis – When corrosion-related failures occur, forensic analysis is conducted to determine the root cause. This involves examining the corroded components, assessing environmental conditions, and identifying contributing factors to the failure.
- Corrosion Control Strategies – Developing and implementing corrosion control strategies tailored to specific industries and applications. This involves designing corrosion management plans, conducting risk assessments, and implementing corrosion control measures.
- Corrosion Testing and Analysis – This involves assessing the susceptibility of materials to corrosion under different environmental conditions. Various tests, such as electrochemical tests, physical measurements of loss, and immersion testing, are conducted to evaluate corrosion rates, resistance, and remaining thicknesses.
- Corrosion Monitoring – Continuous monitoring of corrosion rates and conditions in structures or equipment helps in early detection of corrosion-related issues. Techniques include corrosion rate measurement probes, electrical resistance probes, and ultrasonic thickness measurement.
- Corrosion Prevention and Protection – Several methods are employed to prevent or reduce corrosion, including the use of corrosion-resistant materials, protective coatings (paints, polymer coatings, metal plating), corrosion inhibitors, cathodic protection, and design modifications to minimize exposure to corrosive environments.
