Corrosion Investigation

Corrosion investigation is an engineering service in which the causes and mechanisms of corrosion are sought. A corrosion investigation will analyze the type of corrosion, the corrosive deposits and the resulting effect on the material. These observations will then be used to try to identify the root cause of the corrosion and how to prevent or reduce the likelihood of corrosion in the future.
