Salt Spray Testing
Service Overview
Salt spray testing, also known as salt fog testing, is a standardized laboratory test used to evaluate the corrosion resistance of materials and surface coatings. It is a widely adopted method in industries such as automotive, aerospace, marine, and manufacturing, where products are exposed to corrosive environments.
The test involves placing a sample in a sealed chamber where a fine mist of a salt solution, typically sodium chloride (NaCl), is continuously sprayed under controlled temperature and humidity conditions.
The process simulates the long-term effects of environmental exposure, such as coastal air or road salts, in a compressed timeframe. Standards like ASTM B117 and ISO 9227 guide the test procedure to ensure consistency and reliability.
Salt spray testing provides critical data to assess material durability, compare protective coatings, and predict a product's lifespan. However, it is often combined with other tests to account for real-world conditions like UV exposure, cyclic corrosion, and mechanical stress.

Know More About It.
Salt Spray Testing
Salt spray testing is a widely used accelerated corrosion test designed to evaluate the resistance of coatings, materials, or finishes when exposed to a salt-laden environment. This simulation helps manufacturers predict how their products will perform in harsh, corrosive environments, such as coastal areas or industrial zones. The method is efficient for comparing different materials or coatings and validating product durability before market release.
Neutral Salt Spray (NSS) Test
Description: The most common type of salt spray test, using a 5% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution with a neutral pH of 6.5-7.2.
Purpose: To evaluate the general corrosion resistance of materials, coatings, or surface treatments.
Standards: ASTM B117, ISO 9227.
Acetic Acid Salt Spray (AASS) Test
Description: A variation where acetic acid is added to the salt solution, reducing the pH to an acidic range (3.1-3.3).
Purpose: TCommonly used for testing decorative coatings like electroplated or anodized layers.
Standards: ISO 9227.
