X-ray and Neutron Radiography

X-Ray radiograph showing some metal loss in the highly corroded areas.

Neutron radiograph showing large areas of corrosion.

The two images are of a corroded panel from a fighter aircraft.


Lighter areas of the panel area in the X-ray image indicate the loss of aluminium metal due to the extreme corrosion whilst dark areas in the neutron image show the concentrated presence of corrosion products containing water.

X-Ray radiograph of 3D test object.

Neutron radiograph of 3D object showing adhesive material and test patches of corrosion.

Neutron radiograph of test strips of sealants (top and right).
