The concentration of salt in this mixture is alarmingly high, as it is rarely found in outdoor applications.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/jollyclamps.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Quality-Testing-of-metals-by-salt-solution.webp\" alt=\"Testing of metals or clamps resistance by salt spray\" class=\"wp-image-27532\" srcset=\"https:\/\/jollyclamps.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Quality-Testing-of-metals-by-salt-solution.webp 800w, https:\/\/jollyclamps.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Quality-Testing-of-metals-by-salt-solution-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/jollyclamps.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Quality-Testing-of-metals-by-salt-solution-768x576.webp 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The following parameters are used when conducting salt-spray tests:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The test samples are placed into a chamber at a predetermined temperature (usually 35\u00baC) and misted or finely sprayed with a 5% sodium chloride saline solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The duration of the test can range from 24 to 1000 hours. Throughout the trial, the samples are maintained at a constant temperature and moisture content. To ensure that the saline solution covers the entire surface, each sample is also rotated at regular intervals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oxidation of the sample&#8217;s surface is the test&#8217;s outcome. The number of hours needed before the sample&#8217;s surface exhibits oxidation for the first time is measured.
