Here is what you should know about outgassing, including how it happens, why it can be an issue, and how you can understand and control it.
How Scientific Material Characterization Works
Scientific material characterization is an essential part of modern life. It’s what allows us to understand what substances are made of, how they will react to different environments and stimuli, and what they should and should NOT be used for.
How Does Stainless Steel Coating Prevent Rust?
Did you know that the reason stainless steel resists rust and corrosion is that it has a very thin film coating its surface? This stainless steel coating is a byproduct of the metal elements within the stainless steel interacting with oxygen in the air, and it only forms under specific circumstances.
How to Read an IR Spectrum Chart
An Infrared Radiation spectrum chart, or IR spectrum chart, is the product of a Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (or FTIR) material analysis test. FTIR tests are one of the most commonly conducted tests for characterizing molecules within a material largely because IR spectrum charts are so easy to produce, clear, and reliable. This is what […]
How Does Chemical Failure Analysis Work?
Failure analysis is an essential safety and quality assurance protocol for virtually all modern manufacturing processes. Before a product is deemed safe, professionals need to make sure it is going to perform its intended functions to exact specifications without compromise.
How Do Coating Failure Analysis and Quality Testing Work?
Whenever and wherever a coating is applied, it has an important job to do. If a coating fails to perform its intended function, the results could be disastrous. That’s why, whenever coatings fail whoever is responsible for them needs to find out why immediately and prevent it from happening again. Coating failure analysis is what allows them to do that.
Analytical Chemistry Techniques in Action
These common analytical chemistry techniques are used to separate, identify, quantify, and characterize matter.
Uses of Chemical Analysis for Steel
Chemical analysis for steel works differently from other chemical analysis techniques, and requires its own procedures and equipment. This is what you should know about ESCA, including how it works, how Innovatech uses it, and how it could help you.
The Most Important Food Quality Testing Techniques Used Today
Learn how Gas Chromatography with Mass Spectrometry and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry work and how they’re applied in food quality assurance.
How FTIR Spectroscopy Enhances Quality Control in the Manufacturing Process
Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy, or FTIR Spectroscopy, is considered the gold standard in quality control and assurance in manufacturing today. Here’s everything manufacturers need to know about FTIR Spectroscopy, including how it could help you permanently improve your entire manufacturing process.
