Oil and Gas X-ray film - Overview

Radiographic testing is a non-destructive testing procedure that uses X-rays to generate comprehensive radiograph images used for inspections and quality control. This testing method relies on quality X-ray film designed to meet the applications. At FUJIFILM NDT, we have the solutions you need with an extensive lineup of products manufactured to precision standards.

Fujifilm industrial x-ray film is designed for consistent high-quality non-destructive testing and features revolutionary new film technology. The combination of the latest in emulsion-making science and computerized manufacturing processes assure consistent batch-to-batch performance, optimum image quality and compatibility with all NDT chemistries and current brand tank /automatic processing conditions.

The Fujifilm family of films incorporate unique speed, and grain technologies thus permitting their use over a wide range of applications with consistent high quality regardless of the material examined and the source of radiation employed.

XD film provides excellent image quality coupled with high product stability for NDT radiographic inspections in all industry segments. 

Film Preparation

Testing method 

• Apply load of 200~400g to film surface using a needle with a diameter of 3mm.
• Expose and develop the film to achieve density 2.0, and measure the minimum load value at which sensitization occurs. 

Testing Condition 

• Exposure: X-ray 200kV 
• Processing: Manual; 20°c 5minutes

Various film packaging and sizes are available to provide practical solutions to respective testing conditions and components. Both dark room load films (interleaved and non-interleaved) and pre-packaged films that are suitable for daylight conditions are offered.

The design, materials and processes that we use to produce our line of industrial X-ray films all help us deliver a quality product suitable for your unique NDT testing application. They offer significant advantages over other options in the marketplace, including: 

• Superior image quality: Our XD line of X-ray films features fine granularity to provide you with high-quality images that you can use to detect the smallest defects. 
• Dependable consistency: These industrial X-ray films have the best batch-to-batch consistency in the industry, delivering reliable exposure times so you can stay efficient. 
• Even density: The advanced emulsion coating we apply to our products helps ensure even surface density, helping to deliver images of better quality, brightness and clarity.

The correct X-ray film for the application depends on several variables, including the object material, thickness, how much radiation you're using and the image quality you need. Our experts can help you determine which is appropriate for your non-destructive testing equipment and processes and determine which packaging style to select.
