Materialography:
Unlocking Material Performance
Analyzing microstructures of metals, ceramics, plastics and composites to enhance strength, corrosion resistance and product reliability
All the ins and outs: KGS range of materialography discs
The term materialography used today is a factual extension of metallography, which include many other groups of materials, such as ceramics, plastics and composite materials that are examined in the same way. Materialography is the science of examining a material's microstructure, which is its internal composition at a microscopic level. By polishing and analyzing a material's surface, materialography helps engineers understand properties like strength, corrosion resistance, and potential failure points.
Below you find the specifications for each material. The list of materials will be expanded.
We have 4 diamond discs in our materialography program. Flexis® and Telum® are metal bond. Promet and Prolap are resin bond. Information about these KGS discs you find here.
