At MRL we focus on addressing specific experimental considerations, ensuring the right technique is applied to the right project and that all experiments remain flexible as results are obtained and interpreted. We provide state-of-the-art instrumentation for materials analysis to provide clients in industry, government and academia the best possible analytical data for the study of materials related problems. Contact Us Numerous analytical techniques for the study of solid materials surfaces and failure analysis have been developed in the last few years. Increasing importance is placed on the physical and chemical characteristics in the surface and near surface region of materials. Fields as diverse as biology and aerospace have been affected by the need to identify surface chemistry of critical materials. A brief overview of some of the techniques currently available for surface characterization will be presented along with examples of problem solving and research applications. A multitude of publications are available which itemize the various techniques that can be applied to the study of materials. The methods are too numerous to list and discuss in the scope of this document. Because each available method of study has unique strengths and weaknesses, a clear knowledge of these characteristics can often reduce the time necessary to arrive at a solution to a failure problem or the answer to a materials design question. In this document, several analysis types will be discussed with sufficient detail to highlight their relative usefulness in failure analysis and materials characterization. MRL's primary focus is to respond in a timely manner to solve our clients' problems. A specialist is always available to discuss your objectives. Since we routinely operate around the clock, you can expect rapid turnaround without the surcharges most other ...
