Thermal Paint Selection and Application
We offer expert support in the selection and application of thermal paints for accurate temperature measurement in high-temperature environments. Thermal paints—also known as thermal indicating or temperature-sensitive paints—provide a reliable method for capturing surface temperature exposure on components where conventional sensors may be impractical.
Our capabilities include:
Selection of appropriate thermal paint systems based on temperature range, material compatibility, and operating conditions
Surface preparation and application using best practices to ensure consistent and interpretable results
Post-test interpretation and analysis of color change patterns to validate thermal exposure during engine tests, thermal cycles, or field operation
Integration with simulation to correlate thermal paint results with thermal FEA predictions for validation purposes
Thermal paint application is especially valuable for aerospace, gas turbine, and automotive components, where temperature distribution is critical to durability and performance. Our experience ensures that thermal paint studies are executed with precision and aligned with your testing objectives.
