Erosion testing expertise

This image shows the results of slurry (sand and water) erosion testing carried out in our labs on a metal surface.

At nC2 we have the capabilities to conduct robust erosion testing and state-of-the-art facilities to characterise the failure mechanism of materials, enabling erosion-resistant materials to be developed. This example is a metal we tested and characterised using a scanning electron microscope (SEM), showing the ductile failure mechanism of the metal due to slurry erosion.

If you’re looking for insights from erosion testing, we’d be pleased to hear from you.
