The challenge

Why this equipment needs a defined material evaluation.

The operating environment and failure mechanism must be defined before material selection.

Substrate preparation, access, cure and inspection controls affect the finished application.

A representative comparison must use the real equipment constraints and an agreed acceptance method.
