In the realm of corrosion testing and evaluation, MMTSL pioneers the quest to safeguard against the invisible adversaries that threaten material integrity.
Hydrogen Induced Cracking Test (HIC):
HIC, stands for hydrogen-induced cracking, reveals the insidious formation of subsurface hydrogen blisters within metals due to internal hydrogen pressure. Our testing methodology unveils the underlying mechanisms that compromise ductility, toughness, and tensile strength, enabling proactive measures to prevent catastrophic failure.
Sulfide stress corrosion cracking Test method A (SSCC-NACE Tensile Test) & method B (Four Point Bend test
Sulfide Stress Corrosion Cracking (SSCC):
SSCC represents a formidable challenge, arising from the corrosive interplay between water, H2S, and susceptible materials. Through meticulous testing, including the NACE Tensile Test and Four Point Bend test, we identify and mitigate the risk of embrittlement, preserving the structural integrity of your assets.
Pitting corrosion test for duplex and super duplex stainless steels
Intergranular corrosion test for austenitic stainless steel Practice A, B and E.
Intergranular corrosion test for Nickel based alloys & Inconel materials.
Metallurgical Examination & Evaluation of Metallic Materials:
➢General macro examination
➢General microstructure of the materials
➢Grain size measurement
➢Ferrite count (manual point count method)
➢Inclusion count (manual microscopic method).
➢Determination of inter-metallic phases (microscopic method)
➢Evaluations of HIC, SSCC, Quench cracks; Surface hardening inconsistencies; metallic, inter-metallic & non metallic inclusions. Manufacturing defects such as Lap, seam, casting & forging defects other anomalies in the microstructure.
