Studying Corrosion of Low-Alloy Steel Using Micro X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis

Studying Corrosion of Low-Alloy Steel Using Micro X-Ray Fluorescence Analysis

Low-alloy steel is highly sensitive to corrosion. For this reason parts and structures made of this material are often protected by a zinc (Zn) coating. Zinc coating inhibits corrosion but has the disadvantage that as soon as it is damaged – even in a small area only– corrosion sets in even more severe compared to an unprotected part.

Metallurgical Analysis with the Phenom Desktop SEM

Metallurgical Analysis with the Phenom Desktop SEM

The morphology, composition, and distribution of key microstructural features of many engineering materials influence their properties. Although conventional optical microscopy can be used to observe these features, a scanning electron microscope (SEM) is ideal in cases requiring higher magnification and 3D detail.
