Exposure tests

Exposure testing is typically performed for purposes of material selection, quality control, CLP-directive, …. In an exposure test a coupon (test plate) of the material to be examined (metal, [...]

Tailor-made tests

Sometimes a standardized test deviates too much from practice or sometimes there are practical reasons why a tailor-made test is more appropriate. Examples are specific simulations and [...]

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy or EIS is a technique to measure the general barrier properties of coatings. More specifically water and ion permeability of coatings can be determined as a [...]

Climate tests

METALogic offers a lot of possibilities to test the effects of climate and light on the behaviour of coatings (and metals). By variation in temperature and %RH, by simulating the effects of acid [...]

(Cyclic) salt spray tests

Traditionally coatings are tested by subjecting them to an aggressive environment. This is for example the case in the neutral salt spray test (ISO 9227 NSS or ASTM B117). In this test coatings [...]

Materials investigation

In our laboratories we have state-of-the-art equipment to investigate materials. This can be done as part of a failure analysis or corrosion testing but also in the context of other [...]

Failure analysis

Our team of experts have in-depth knowledge and many years of experience in failure analysis and is supported by state-of-the-art equipment and laboratories. METALogic goes to the limit to solve [...]

Cyclic polarization tests

In the laboratories of METALogic cyclic polarization measurements are performed to study the behaviour of metals under different exposure conditions: measuring a corrosion rate, resistance to [...]
