The FILAB laboratory characterizes the nature of a deposit or pollution
What is a deposit?
A deposit or pollution can be metallic, mineral or organic in nature. However, the origin of a deposit is not always easy to identify. It may be present when the raw material is received, it may appear during the production process or it may appear in the final environment.
The deposit may be identified in isolation, or on the surface of a material. In the second case, the interactions and attacks of an environment can lead to the formation of residual particles on the surface of a material, known as a deposit or pollution.
What impact does a deposit or pollution have on the viability of a material?
The performance of a material is directly linked to its surface properties. The formation of a deposit or the presence of pollution on a material can lead to material failure. This failure may be :
- visual (appearance of a stain, irregularities, colour change, etc.)
- functional (adhesion problems, harmfulness, etc.)
Qualifying the cleanliness of a surface according to legal or in-house standards is an essential part of the production or maintenance process for a material. Identifying the chemical nature of a deposit or identifying pollution by an analysis laboratory will make it possible to define the actions needed to eliminate it before it is placed on the market.
