Fluid Susceptibility and Contamination Testing
Fluid susceptibility and contamination testing are performed to predict or evaluate the effect of chemicals, moisture, and other fluid contaminants on products and components. Any product exposed to chemical spills may incur damage or reduced performance. Testing can help engineers design fluid-resistant products, and avoid product failure. Testing chambers are available to test components under industrial or military standards, or custom testing protocols can be developed based on the product usage conditions. Physical, chemical, and electrical properties are measured before and after testing for comprehensive characterization. The most frequent fluid encountered are solvents, lubricants, insecticides, wastewater, anti-freeze liquids, coolant dielectric liquids, cleaning agents, fuels, etc.
