At
Corrosion Clinic, our NACE certified corrosion specialist provides
efficient and proficient corrosion advisory and corrosion
consulting services including anodic and cathodic protection design and
specification, corrosion diagnosis, corrosion failure
analysis, forensic investigation and expert witness in litigation and
arbitration cases related to corrosion, materials, metallurgy, organic
coatings (paints) and metallic coatings such as thermal spray metallizing,
galvanizing, anodizing, chromating, phosphating, electroplating,
electroless plating, mechanical plating, and sheradizing or diffusion
coating. We also are experienced in providing
corrosion courses for
in-house training, online and distance learning:
-
Corrosion
advisory services
on corrosion related issues
-
Corrosion diagnosis and trouble-shooting of
process-related issues
-
-
Third party
independent review of designs,
drawings and technical specifications to identify potential corrosion
risks, the compatibility of materials, the different forms of corrosion and their
mitigation
-
Reviews of
specifications on materials, processes and coatings to identify any
clauses that may lead to potential dispute, arbitration or litigation
among the parties involved. Corrosion liability can be avoided through
proper specifications.

-
Corrosion Testing to
standards, certifications and verifications
Verification of whether materials or products have been produced in
accordance with the relevant international standards such as
ASTM, BS, DIN, ISO and JIS or to contract specifications may be
established by testing. Corrosion Clinic has access to a wide range of
equipment and expert personnel for testing physical, mechanical and
corrosion resistance properties of materials.
