This Laboratory is equipped with basic Non–Destructive Testing (NDT) equipment for testing and perform the corrosion related experiments. Students carry out experiments to evaluate the corrosion resistance of various materials. Corrosion experiments are performed as per various standards such as ASTM B117, ASTM D2688, ASTM G67, ASTM 262, ASTM G31 etc. The lab is equipped with equipment needed for NDT such as Ultrasonic testing device, Magnetic particle inspection kit, Liquid Penetrant Test kit which are used to perform testing of components without destroying them and help them in assessing reliability.
