Corrosion, Failure Analysis and
Metallurgical Engineering Services
Materials engineering is the science and study of a material's physical, mechanical and corrosion properties.It is a large field with applications in many diverse industries.
We specialize in materials' engineering for the petrochemical, refining, oil & gas and pulp & paper industries. A common denominator in these industries is the processing and storage of flammable, toxic and corrosive liquids. Of paramount importance, both from an economic and safety viewpoint, is proper selection of materials to safely contain these environments.
In an ideal world, the application of materials engineering knowledge would be confined to initial materials selection. Experience suggests however, that an ideal world does not exist, therefore the need for related material's disciplines to anticipate, evaluate and solve problems related to equipment and component failures.
The Hendrix Group's primary business focus is studying the root cause of mechanical and corrosion-related equipment failures. We apply that knowledge to the prevention of failures through proper materials selection, corrosion monitoring, and suitability-for-service and remaining-life evaluations.
We provide a range of complementary services to industry including:
