Failure Analysis

Trusted Testing That Turns Failures into Insights

When a product or component fails, identifying the true chemical root cause is essential—not only to resolve the issue at hand but also to prevent costly recurrences. At Quantum Analytics, our chemical failure analysis services combine advanced instrumentation, deep scientific expertise, and methodical investigation to uncover underlying mechanisms of failure. From material degradation and contamination to formulation instability and unexpected reactions, we deliver precise chemical insights that guide you from diagnosis to corrective action. Our findings empower you to eliminate defects, ensure compliance, safeguard performance, maintain customer trust and protect your brand.

Turning Failures into Actionable Solutions

Define the Failure Event
Gather the full history of the part or product, its condition, performance record, and impact on operations or safety.

Select the Appropriate Analysis Techniques
Choose from a range of targeted methods such as microscopy, spectroscopy, physical testing, and chemical analysis based on the suspected cause or material.

Investigate and Diagnose
Examine failed components, perform precise testing, and reconstruct the sequence of events that led to the failure.

Deliver Actionable Conclusions
Provide a comprehensive report with a clear diagnosis, identified root cause, and a practical plan to eliminate risk and improve product reliability.

 

Raw Materials Testing

Identifying Material or Mechanical Flaws
Fractures, corrosion, or fatigue can be detected using tools such as SEM, EDS, metallography, and other advanced methods.

Verifying design and Manufacturing Integrity
Analysis reveals weaknesses in assembly, material selection, or processing that lead to performance breakdowns.

Preventing Recurrent Failures
Detailed findings translate into actionable corrective plans that improve reliability and compliance.
