LISUN salt spray test chamber is designed according to ASTM-B117

Image
The ASTM-B117 standard is an internationally accepted benchmark for salt spray testing, and the LISUN salt spray test chamber was developed in accordance with this standard. This standard provides guidelines and requirements for conducting salt spray tests on materials, products, and components to evaluate their resistance to corrosion caused by exposure to salt spray or salt fog. The purpose of these tests is to determine how well a material, product, or component will hold up against exposure to salt spray or salt fog. When performing salt spray tests, the parameters that are to be used are those that are specified by the ASTM-B117 standard. These circumstances include the temperature, humidity, concentration of salt, and length of exposure. In addition to this, it offers instructions for the production of test specimens or samples, as well as techniques for assessing the test findings and performance criteria for estimating the corrosion resistance of the materials that are being

Why do we need to do salt spray test according to ASTM-B117?

The salt spray testing that is specified in ASTM-B117 is an essential technique for determining the level of corrosion resistance possessed by materials and coatings. The test evaluates the capacity of the materials and coatings to withstand the corrosive effects of a salt-laden atmosphere, such as those found in marine or coastal areas. This helps determine how well the materials and coatings perform. A standardized approach for performing salt spray testing is provided by ASTM-B117. This method assures that the findings obtained from various labs can be compared and interpreted in the same manner. The preparation of the specimens, the analysis of the findings, and the reporting of the results are all included in the standard. The standard also defines the test parameters, which may include temperature, relative humidity, and salt content. The necessity to verify that goods can withstand corrosive conditions is what drives the need for salt spray testing in accordance with ASTM-B
