One-Stop Metal Material Testing Service

Seawater Spray Test

Seawater spray testing is an accelerated testing method that simulates the corrosive conditions of marine environments. By using natural seawater or artificially prepared seawater solutions, it mimics the corrosive effects of salt spray on materials in marine atmospheres. Ding & Testing Inspection can rapidly assess the corrosion resistance of metal materials and their coatings in marine environments, providing important references for material selection and quality control in fields such as marine engineering, shipbuilding, and coastal facilities.

Ding & Testing Inspection: Experts in Seawater Spray Testing, Assessing Corrosion Resistance in Marine Environments
Seawater spray testing is an accelerated testing method that simulates the corrosive conditions of marine environments. By using natural seawater or artificially prepared seawater solutions, it mimics the corrosive effects of salt spray on materials in marine atmospheres. Ding & Testing Inspection can rapidly assess the corrosion resistance of metal materials and their coatings in marine environments, providing important references for material selection and quality control in fields such as marine engineering, shipbuilding, and coastal facilities.
Service Introduction
Seawater spray testing is an accelerated assessment method that simulates marine atmospheric corrosion environments. It involves atomizing a certain concentration of seawater solution and spraying it into a closed, temperature-controlled chamber to simulate the corrosive effects of salt spray on materials in marine environments. During the test, samples are placed in the chamber for a period of time, and their surface changes are observed to evaluate their corrosion resistance. Compared to traditional salt spray testing, seawater spray testing more closely resembles real marine environments and can more accurately reflect the durability of materials under marine conditions.
Testing Methods
Seawater spray testing is a corrosion testing method that simulates marine environments, with test conditions typically including:
  • Spray Solution: Using natural seawater or artificially prepared seawater solutions (which usually contain various minerals and salts found in the ocean).
  • Test Temperature: Generally controlled around 35°C to accelerate the corrosion process.
  • Test Duration: Depending on customer requirements, test durations can range from 24 hours to hundreds of hours or even longer.
  • pH Value: The pH value of the seawater solution is usually close to neutral (approximately 7.0-8.0), more similar to real marine environments.
Industry Pain Points
In marine environments, metal materials and their coatings face multiple corrosive challenges such as high salinity, high humidity, and strong ultraviolet radiation. These corrosion issues can not only reduce product lifespans but also lead to serious safety hazards. Therefore, accurately assessing the corrosion resistance of materials in marine environments is a key link in ensuring the safety and reliability of marine engineering, shipbuilding, and coastal facilities.
