In modern industrial practices, evaluating material corrosion resistance has become a critical quality control procedure. As the core testing equipment, salt spray chambers simulate various environmental parameters to deliver four distinctive testing modalities:

1. Neutral Salt Spray Test (NSS)

The foundational protocol employs:

5% NaCl solution (pH6-7 neutral range)

Constant 35°C chamber temperature

95% relative humidity Primary applications cover:

Zinc/cadmium protective coatings

Decorative chromium plating

Metallic substrate surface treatments

2. Acetic Acid Salt Spray (AASS)

Enhanced corrosion acceleration achieved by:

Adding glacial acetic acid (pH≈3.0)

20-30% faster than NSS Standard implementation for:

Cu-Ni-Cr multilayer plating

Nickel-chromium alloy coatings

Rapid verification of anti-corrosion paints

3. Copper-Accelerated Acetic Acid Salt Spray (CASS)

The premium accelerated test featuring:

0.26g/L CuCl? additive

50°C elevated temperature Key advantages:

50% higher efficiency than AASS

Preferred for automotive components

Electroplated parts quality inspection

4. Cyclic Corrosion Test (CCT)

The comprehensive evaluation combining:

NSS phases

Constant temperature/humidity cycles Critical for assessing:

Hollow mechanical assemblies

Precision instruments

Sealed equipment with internal cavities

Current evolution aligns with updated ASTM B117 and ISO 9227 standards, driving technological advancements toward:

Multi-parameter adjustable systems

AI-powered monitoring

Aerospace/new energy vehicle applications
