材料失效的原因各不相同, 但它们的断裂主要有四种模式:疲劳, 分裂, 酒窝破裂, 和脱粘破裂. 每一种模式都有自己的断裂特征.

  1. 疲劳断裂 是重复加载的结果吗. 裂纹在阶段I开始, 在第二阶段繁殖, 并在第三阶段达到包括分离在内的灾难性断裂. Fatigue striations observed generally in high cycle 乏力 align perpendicular to crack propagation direction.
  2. 分裂 低能骨折是完全平坦无特征的吗. 河流模式, 羽毛的标记, and chevron patterns are some of the features observed in 分裂 mode of 骨折.
  3. 酒窝破裂 当超载是失效的主要原因时,断裂的模式是什么. 微孔洞合并是韧窝破裂的特征.
  4. Decohesive破裂 发生时几乎没有塑性变形,并涉及原子键的减弱. 氢脆, 应力腐蚀开裂, 蠕变是脱粘破裂的一些例子.
im体育APP的专家采用了各种各样的 金相分析 services to determine the failure causes of parts, products, and engineering structures.

一种物质的组成影响着它的一切——它能持续多久, 它是多么强壮或灵活啊, 如何包装, 等. Investigative Chemistry is based on the idea that materials questions can be answered by examining the processes, 组件, 还有化学反应.

im体育APP’s investigative 化学家 possess a unique range of experience in consulting, 分析测试, 工业化学. 是否有日常的QA/QC协助, 材料验证, 或im体育APP分析,或非常规项目,如产品分解, 未知物质的鉴定, or the analysis of a failed part or product - we are prepared to work 与 you to explore solutions. im体育APP serves the 测试 needs of all types of industries and government agencies.

im体育APP performs 测试 and evaluation using the following techniques and onsite specialized equipment: 

神秘的污点或变色, 不明残留物或沉积物, or evidence of 腐蚀 on the surface of a part - those are often difficult and costly problems to solve.

im体育APP residue analysis experts are trained in techniques that can help you determine the nature of the beast and get to the bottom of unknown substances that can have a detrimental effect on your parts or products. 我们的 从事专家 use a combination of analysis techniques to characterize various types of residues. SEM/EDS (Scanning Electron Microscopy 与 能源 Dispersive X-Ray Spectroscopy) analysis is used to determine the elemental composition of the residue, 与 XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) sometimes used to identify specific compounds present. FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) is also sometimes used when residues appear to exhibit high levels of carbon or other low energy elements or are too thin to accurately analyze 与 the SEM/EDS system. 

W当需要进行更深入的分析时, 立体显微镜的结合, 扫描电镜分析, and metallurgical examination is used to characterize the residue as being on top of the surface (a deposit or stain) or being beneath the surface (a 腐蚀 product or inclusion 与in material).

 

聚合材料,如弹性体, 热塑性塑料, 复合材料广泛应用于石油部署的油田设备中 & 世界各地的天然气公司.

在弹性(橡胶)密封件的情况下, exposure in service to aggressive treatment chemicals and/or elevated temperatures and pressures can chemically and/or mechanically degrade the parts, 导致不可逆转的变化, 性能恶化, 以及组件最终的功能失效. The challenge is therefore to determine the root cause of failure so that preventative and corrective actions can be implemented to ensure that it does not happen again. im体育APP参与提供上游的故障分析服务, 中游, 下游应用包括:
