The microstructure analysis of materials examines how the material was made and can provide indicators on how that material will behave in service.

Why do we do microstructure analysis?

Microstructural analysis is used widely in industry to evaluate products and materials. Performance, response to environment and failure mechanisms are just some of the areas in which microstructural analysis can be utilised to assess and develop products.
