Chemical corrosion properties testing

Plastic Corrosion Properties Testing

If a part fails in the field months after it passed every mechanical test, the real cause is often chemical, not structural. Kiyo R&D Lab is a trusted chemical corrosion properties testing lab in Chennai for plastics, rubber, metals, and coated materials. We help you find out — before your product ships — how a material actually holds up against acids, salts, humidity, and the other everyday chemical stresses that mechanical testing alone won't reveal.

Chemical & Corrosion Testing Across Every Exposure Type in Chennai

Corrosion Exposure
When manufacturers search for corrosion testing near me, they’re usually trying to answer one question: will this material hold up in the field? Our corrosion resistance testing Chennai service and salt spray test lab Chennai capability, both run per ASTM B117 testing and ISO 9227 testing, give you that answer with real data instead of a datasheet estimate.
Chemical & Material Compatibility
Our chemical resistance testing lab capability, backed by ASTM D543 testing, and our broader chemical properties testing Chennai service identify exactly which reagents a material can safely contact. Where dissimilar materials meet, our galvanic corrosion testing Chennai service and material compatibility testing catch failure risks before they reach the field.
Long-Term & Local
Beyond a single exposure event, our environmental exposure testing Chennai and accelerated corrosion testing services simulate years of real-world conditions in weeks. Our corrosion rate testing lab capability turns that into a number you can design around. As a plastic corrosion testing lab based at our corrosion testing Chitlapakkam headquarters, we’re within easy reach across Chennai’s industrial corridor.

Some of Our Corrosion Properties Testing Services

Corrosion Resistance

We expose materials to acids, alkalis, salts, and industrial or marine-grade chemicals per ASTM B117 and ISO 9227, showing you exactly how a material holds up before it's specified into a corrosive-service application.

Environmental Exposure Testing

Real-world weather doesn't test one variable at a time — it's heat, humidity, and UV together. Our environmental exposure testing simulates that combination per ASTM G154 and ASTM D1435, giving you a realistic picture of long-term durability rather than an idealized lab result.

Salt Spray Testing

Our salt spray testing per ASTM B117 simulates saltwater and coastal atmospheric exposure, revealing how a coating, plating, or plastic component resists corrosion over extended service life.

Chemical Resistance

Per ASTM D543, we determine which specific chemicals and reagents a material can safely contact — so material selection is based on evidence, not on a datasheet assumption that may not hold for your exact exposure condition.

Material Compatibility

When dissimilar materials touch — a metal fastener against a plastic housing, for instance — galvanic corrosion becomes a real risk. We assess that compatibility so it doesn't become a field failure you discover after launch.

Corrosion Rate

We quantify exactly how fast a material deteriorates in a given corrosive environment, per ASTM G1, turning "it will corrode eventually" into a number you can actually design around.

Corrosion Resistance

We evaluate the ability of plastic materials to resist corrosion when exposed to various corrosive substances, such as acids, alkalis, salts, or chemicals commonly found in industrial or marine environments.

Environmental Exposure Testing

We subject plastic samples to accelerated aging tests, simulating real-world environmental conditions, including humidity, temperature fluctuations, and exposure to corrosive atmospheres or corrosive agents.

Salt Spray Testing

We simulate saltwater or saline environments to assess the resistance of plastic materials to corrosion caused by exposure to saltwater or salt-laden atmospheres.

Chemical Resistance

We evaluate the resistance of plastic materials to specific chemicals and substances known to cause corrosion, helping you select the most suitable materials for corrosive environments.

Material Compatibility

We assess the compatibility of plastic materials with metals or other materials they may come into contact with, evaluating the potential for galvanic corrosion or other forms of material degradation.

Corrosion Rate

By measuring the rate at which a plastic material corrodes or deteriorates in a corrosive environment, we provide insights into its long-term durability and resistance to corrosion.

Why Choose KIYO R&D Center and Laboratory?

  • Chemical/Corrosion Expertise

    Our team of chemists and materials scientists at this chemical corrosion properties testing lab in Chennai understands the complex interactions between materials and different chemical environments — not just the test procedure, but why a given failure mode happens.

  • State-of-the-Art Corrosion Testing Equipment

    Our Chennai laboratory runs calibrated corrosion chambers capable of simulating salt fog, humidity cycling, and chemical immersion conditions with precise, repeatable control.

  • Comprehensive Range of Corrosion Tests

    As a full-service chemical corrosion properties testing lab in Chennai, we cover exposure testing, salt fog, humidity, and accelerated corrosion assessment, so you can evaluate multiple failure modes from one submission

  • Customized Testing Protocols

    We build testing around your material, application, and the actual environment your product will face — not a fixed template that may not match your real-world exposure.

  • Assessment of Material Compatibility

    Our compatibility testing helps confirm materials will hold up together in the field, not just individually on a datasheet.

  • Data Analysis and Interpretation

    A corrosion rate number on its own doesn't tell you what to do next — our reports explain what your result actually means for material selection and design decisions.
