Hydrogen embrittlement is an invisible but serious risk in aerospace manufacturing. This blog explains how hydrogen enters metal during electroplating, the consequences of embrittlement failures, and why standardized testing remains the most reliable method of prevention.

Learn how Omega Research tests and verifies compliance for both hexavalent and trivalent systems.

Salt spray testing is essential for predicting the corrosion resistance and service life of aerospace components exposed to harsh environments like salt-laden air and extreme weather conditions.

Even when two chemistries meet the same MIL spec, combining them in a single immersion tank can lead to compliance issues and coating failures. Here’s what manufacturers need to know and how to prevent costly mistakes.

MIL-DTL-5541 governs conversion coatings on aluminum for corrosion resistance and conductivity. Discover how to meet testing requirements and choose between Type I and II coatings.
