Intergranular Corrosion (IGC) Testing is a specialized procedure used to evaluate the susceptibility of stainless steels and other alloys to corrosion along grain boundaries. This type of corrosion can lead to premature material failure, especially in critical components used in chemical, petrochemical, and high-temperature applications. At Alphalab Rajkot, we provide precise IGC testing services to help manufacturers and engineers ensure the long-term reliability and safety of their materials.

During IGC testing, metal specimens are exposed to controlled chemical or electrochemical environments designed to simulate service conditions that may trigger grain boundary attack. The specimens are then examined for signs of corrosion, such as intergranular etching or cracking, allowing accurate assessment of the material’s resistance. This test is essential for quality assurance, material verification, and compliance with industry standards.

Alphalab Rajkot performs IGC testing in accordance with international standards, using calibrated equipment and expert procedures to deliver reliable results. Our team also provides guidance on interpreting test outcomes and recommends preventive measures, including material selection or heat treatment, to mitigate intergranular corrosion risks.
