AUTOMOTIVE
In recent years, new battery materials and power device materials that are used in electric vehicles and fuel cell vehicles have been actively researched. Moreover, in response to further fuel consumption improvements and exhaust emission regulations for existing internal combustion engine vehicles, weight reduction based on new material development and catalyst development for exhaust emission purification is being continued. HORIBA Scientific supports the research and development of nextgeneration vehicles with various analytical instruments, and offers technology that can contribute to development.
Main application
- Analysis of paint
- Analysis of corrosion of metal
- DLC coating analysis
- Analysis of battery materials
- Composite polymers
Graphite and polymer analysis of fuel cell
Main application
- Thickness, optical constants
- Roughness, porosity
- Gradient layer, interface
- Transmission, reflectivity curve
- Paints, coatings
Diamond Like Carbon (DLC) film used as a protective coating for automotive frictional parts was evaluated. It was determined from the analysis that the DLC hardened film is 6000 Å and the surface roughness is 60 Å. In addition, it was not only possible to measure the film thickness, but also the correlation between the hardness and refractive index of DLC.
Main application
- Catalyst for exhaust gas treatment
- Lithium battery materials used in the new energy automobiles
- Coatings
- Metal powder for alloy smelting
Catalysts for automobiles are used to remove the HC, CO, NOx in the exhaust gas. To assure the product quality of the catalyst, controlling the
particle size distribution not only of the precious metal, but also of the ceramic particles, is important. To accomplish this task, particle size distribution analyzers are necessary
Main application
- Carbon and sulfur analysis in the steel for automobile
- Carbon and sulfur analysis in the catalyst
In a high temperature environment, the carbon in the nickel alloy affects the performance of the alloy.
The deposition of carbon causes the materials to become brittle, reduces the corrosion resistance and reduces the mechanical strength.
Main application
- Coating thickness and composition of
- galvanized steel sheets
- Determination of harmful elements of colorcoated sheets
- Process monitoring nitriding and carburizing
- Determination of phosphate/passivation films, etc.
Composition depth profile of galvanized steel sheet
Main application
- Engine wear analysis
- ELV regulation analysis
Wear particles of magnesium and steel alloys
