Applying Advanced Microscopy and Chemical Analysis to Polymer Contamination Root Cause Investigation

Unexpected contamination in polymer systems can lead to product failures, production delays, and reputational risk. By adopting a forensic science approach to polymer failure investigations, it is possible to explore and understand potential failures related to processing and materials such as identification of surface contamination on a multi-layer polymer system.

In this case study our expert describes the stepwise analytical approaches using advanced microscopy and chemical analysis techniques to identifysurface contamination on a multi-layer polymer system. This insight helped to identify the source of the contamination.
