Accelerated corrosion testing for automotive and aerospace industries
Welcome to a seminar on accelerated corrosion testing in the automotive and aerospace industries: advancements, challenges, and key insights.
Join our experts, Mats Ström and Dominique Thierry, as they share insights on accelerated corrosion testing, its development, and applications within the automotive and aerospace industries.
The seminar includes two presentations:
Accelerated Corrosion Testing in the Automotive Industry – A Critical Evaluation
Mats Ström discusses an evaluation of accelerated corrosion testing in the automotive industry, highlighting how more realistic testing methods can improve the ability to replicate real-world conditions and predict corrosion behavior.
Development of Reliable Accelerated Corrosion Tests for Aluminum Alloys Used in the Aerospace Industry
Dominique Thierry presents new and improved methods for accelerated corrosion testing of aluminum alloys in the aerospace industry, explaining how these tests can provide more accurate and relevant results by better replicating the specific conditions in aerospace environments.
Please note that the seminar will be held in English.
