high temperature aging in a climatic chamber

High temperature aging test in a canned food climate chamber

Accelerated aging by high temperatures in a climatic chamber is a commonly used method to simulate the deterioration of a can over time. Here is an example of how this process would be carried out:

1. Preparation of the climatic chamber: Make sure you have a suitable climatic chamber to perform accelerated high temperature aging. This chamber must be able to maintain a constant and controlled temperature.
2. Preparation of the cans: Select the cans to be subjected to accelerated aging. Make sure they are clean and in good condition, with no previous damage or corrosion.
3. Climate chamber setting: Sets the temperature of the climate chamber to a high level, e.g. 50°C. This temperature should be high enough to accelerate the aging process of the cans.
4. Placing the cans in the climatic chamber: Place the cans inside the climatic chamber so that they are directly exposed to the high temperature. You can place them on suitable shelves or supports to ensure even heat distribution.
5. Exposure time: Sets a specific exposure time for the cans in the climatic chamber. For example, you can program the cans to remain in the chamber for 48 hours.
6. Monitoring the cans: During the accelerated aging process, it is important to regularly monitor the cans to observe any changes or deterioration. You can perform visual inspections to detect possible deformation, corrosion or other signs of deterioration.
7. Record of changes: Record in detail the changes that occur in the cans as they are subjected to accelerated aging. You can take photographs or note down relevant observations.
8. Evaluation of the results: Once the exposure time in the climatic chamber is over, evaluate the results obtained. It compares the condition of the cans before and after accelerated aging to determine the impact of high temperatures on their deterioration.

Remember that this is only an example and that specific parameters, such as temperature and exposure time, may vary depending on the purpose of the test and the type of can you are evaluating.
