  • Light microscopy
  • SEM imagining & EDS microanalysis
  • XRF measurements of coating thickness & composition
  • XRF trace analysis according to RoHS and WEEE requirements
  • Determination of complex multi-coating systems (metallography, XRF, SEM/EDS)
  • NSS corrosion testing according to ISO 9227
  • Failure analysis
  • Training courses for laboratory staff (metallography, corrosion testing, failure analysis)
