Material Analysis

The Rexnord Innovation Center has a long history of providing metallurgical services for ferrous and non-ferrous materials, alloy steels, polymers and composites. We can characterize material composition, macro and microstructure, hardness distribution, mechanical properties, corrosion resistance, environmental exposure resistance, thermal cycling performance and abrasive wear resistance. Additionally, our Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) allows our analysts to perform in-depth analysis of failures and also determine chemical composition through Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS).
