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.
Navigating Interchangeability in Chemical Conversion Coatings for Immersion Applications
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.
Understanding MIL-DTL-5541
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.
