Expertise in corrosion and corrosion protection
Area of expertise
Metallic materials
Analyse and understand the corrosion of a part, product or metallic equipment
YOUR EXPECTATIONS
You would like to:
- understand a corrosion phenomenon on a metallic material
- perform representative tests or examinations of a specific type of corrosion
- solve the problems of corrosion on your assemblies (galvanic coupling)
- assess the strength, durability or performance of a material or that of its corrosion protection system
- implement corrosion protection (cathodic protection, paint, surface treatment, selection of adequate material, etc.)
OUR SOLUTIONS
- Test equipment and laboratory tests to simulate or analyse and understand a type of corrosion (climatic chambers, salt spray, etc.)
- Experts who come to your site to provide support in a structured approach (diagnosis, failure analysis, etc.)
- Suggestions and recommendations suited to your needs
- Support from the design stage of your equipment or structures:
- Selection of materials,
- Selection of the protection (surface treatment, coating, etc.)
- Modelling of the cathodic protection (PROCOR software)
YOUR BENEFITS
- Recognised expertise in the area of corrosion and corrosion protection
- Tailored and responsive service
- Access to the most advanced technologies, skills and equipment
- Access to the multidisciplinary skills of our metallurgical teams to optimise your products
- An independent laboratory and a major player in the energy (Oil & Gas, renewable energies, renewable marine energies, etc.), naval, infrastructure, aerospace, rail, automobile and medical sectors).
