Salt Spray Chamber

Salt Spray Tester (Or salt fog test) is a pretty common corrosion test for various metal spare part.
Application range: usually used to check corrosion resistance of materials and surface coatings. And the materials range cover metallic (although stone, ceramics, and polymers may also be tested) and finished with a surface coating which is intended to provide a degree of corrosion protection to the underlying metal.

Determination: Salt spray testing is an accelerated corrosion test that produces a corrosive attack to coated samples in order to evaluate the suitability of the coating for use as a protective finish. The appearance of corrosion products is evaluated after a pre-determined period of time. Test duration depends on the corrosion resistance of the coating; generally, the more corrosion resistant the coating is, the longer the period of testing before the appearance of corrosion or rust.

Test Standard: ISO 9227, ASTM B117, ASTMG85, ISO:3769, ISO3770, ASTM B268, JIS: D0201, JIS H8502, JIS Z2371

Test Standard Explanation ISO 9227
This standard indicate the test items for neutral salt spray (NSS), acetic acid salt spray (AASS) and copper-accelerated acetic acid salt spray (CASS) tests for assessment of the corrosion resistance of metallic materials, with or without permanent or temporary corrosion protection.
