Oxyacetylene Ablation Testing Service

Oxyacetylene Ablation Testing Service

Oxyacetylene Ablation Testing is an important way to test materials under extreme environmental thermal conditions. Such testing is crucial for materials designed to be used in industries where high sustainability and thermal resistance are a requirement. The test is aimed at exposing materials to an oxyacetylene flame to obtain a high-temperature envelope bonfire where materials realistically would be exposed to extreme heat and oxidative conditions.

Overview of Oxyacetylene Ablation Testing

The basic concept of Oxyacetylene Ablation Testing is the use of controlled application of an oxyacetylene flame to a sample. An oxyacetylene flame generating sufficiently high energy contains a temperature range with an upper limit of 3,000 °C. It is provided with ultra-oxidation and high-heat energy conditions. The reaction of the sample to this condition is carefully both observed and assessed. The primary indicators of ablation resistance, for example, mass loss, surface removal of material, and heat conductivity, are registered.

This procedure is based on the following scientific principles.

  • Thermal Degradation: In the combustion process, the flame will thermally decompose the material. The process of thermal decomposition can result in the disruption of a molecular framework which can lead to loss of mass as well as erosion of surface area.
  • Oxidative Reactions: The flame’s oxygen intake helps catalyze oxidative reactions on the material’s surface. These reactions are capable of propagating the rate of degradation on any material that is not oxidation-resistant.
  • Heat Transfer: The material's dielectric properties, whether it can or cannot conduct heat, are important in its ablation resistance. Insulating materials tend to be more effective. With low thermal conductivity, the material can localize the heat and prevent it from penetrating into the deeper regions.
