Can you carry out a metallography investigation on failed tube samples for desalination units?
We do undertake insitu metallography by replica technique in which metallography is done by polishing & etching of test surface and then getting the microstructure image on a plastic film which in turn is viewed on a microscope. This technique allows study of microstructure without cutting a sample. We can carryout this on all type of metals. Our charges for this type of service will depend on number of locations which need to be tested. Please let us know the number of locations, material of construction and tentative date of inspection and we shall send you a complete quote.
