MPT Chemicals
Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT) is a highly effective method for surface and sub-surface examination of ferro-magnetic materials. This technique relies on the fundamental principle that ferrous particles are attracted to magnetic fields. During the process, the material or component under scrutiny is magnetized, and magnetic particles are then applied to the targeted surface. These particles are subsequently drawn to any areas of magnetic flux leakage, thereby forming visible indications of potential defects. Notably, these indications are typically significantly larger (approximately 10 times) than the actual defects, facilitating easier detection. Two main categories of magnetic particles are employed: non- fluorescent particles for observation under white light, and fluorescent particles for examination under UV light. Additionally, these particles can be further categorized based on application method, including the dry method and the wet method. In the wet method, magnetic particles are dispersed in either oil or water. The selection of high-quality testing chemicals is paramount to the success and accuracy of magnetic particle testing. The FlawGlo series offers a comprehensive range of magnetic particle testing chemicals tailored to various applications, including oil-based, water-based, and dry applications, available in both visible and fluorescent formulations.
