  • Description
Testing Method Metallographic Microscope
Description Metallography or metallurgy is the study of the structure of metals and alloys. Metallographic microscope can be used as a tool to help identify a metal or alloy, to determine whether an alloy was processed correctly, to examine multiple phases within a material, to locate and characterize imperfections such as voids or impurities, or to observe damaged or degraded areas in failure analysis investigations. In short, metallographic microscope can reveal a great deal about the past history of a metal specimen, and how it will act in service.
