Applications of electrochemical polarization reactivation method - EPR test

This method designed to examine of the susceptibility to nonuniform corrosion, ranks among the more successful technique developments. One of its numerous advantages is that it lends itself to non-destructive, on-site examination. EPR measurements tends to focus in double and/or single loop modes as a technique used to establish the resistance of stainless steels and alloys to intergranular corrosion and/or stress corrosion cracking susceptibility for nuclear engineering application, and studies of grain boundary precipitation and other minute local changes to alloy composition and structure
