Common nondestructive testing tools used for nanoanalysis are SEM coupled with energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, piezoquartz crystal microbalances, Eddy current, and acoustic emission method.
Manufacturers require non-destructive testing (NDT) to analyze the qualities of a material, component, structure, or system for distinctive variations, welding faults, and discontinuity without causing harm to the original part.
