The salt mist test according to DIN EN ISO 9227
In a salt mist test, the samples to be tested are subjected to a sodium chloride mist atmosphere at an elevated temperature. This process simulates the stress on the test items caused by corrosive, oxidizing media in fast motion. Other spray solutions such as acetic acid (AASS) or copper chloride (CASS) can also be used.

Furthermore, the salt spray test mentioned above can be combined with other test methods. This results in alternating corrosion tests with cyclic processes and controlled temperature and humidity. Below you will find an example selection:
