MTL Compatibility Capabilities

The
Material Testing Laboratory (MTL) performs numerous process
material compatibility studies in support of WR manufacturing.
The objective is to prevent the physical degradation of manufactured
components as a result of physical contact with process materials
used in manufacturing operations. Types of studies include
physical and chemical characterization of a material, cleaning
studies, and corrosion studies. Virtually all of the MTL testing
equipment and expertise capabilities
have been applied to compatibility studies. The MTL also collaborates
with other LANL organizations that effectively expand our
capabilities and expertise to other disciplines such as surface
analysis and materials science.
The Material Testing Laboratory's Quality Management Plan is applied to all compatibility studies, assuring that the data is technically sound, meets customer requirements, is reproducible, and is properly documented. MTL project management and control systems assure that compatibility studies meet customer scope and objectives, are done on time, and within budget.
