Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de diagnostic non destructeur permettant de diagnostiquer, au moyen d'un dispositif de diagnostic non destructeur, l'apparition d'un film d'oxyde sur un matériau métallique, en particulier un fil métallique et/ou un câble métallique, revêtu d'une composition polymère, le revêtement présentant une épaisseur prédéterminée E. Ledit dispositif de diagnostic non destructeur comprend un système optique comportant une section d'oscillation entraînant l'oscillation d'un faisceau électromagnétique présentant une direction de polarisation prédéterminée et une fréquence prédéterminée dans le domaine sub-térahertz ; et une section de détection capable de détecter un faisceau électromagnétique présentant une fréquence prédéterminée dans le domaine sub-térahertz, la section d'oscillation comportant un dispositif électronique en tant que source de lumière servant à faire osciller un faisceau électromagnétique et la fréquence prédéterminée dans le domaine sub-térahertz variant de 0,05 à 0,2 THz. Ledit procédé de diagnostic non destructeur comprend les étapes consistant à utiliser un matériau métallique revêtu qui constitue l'objet du diagnostic ; à disposer ledit matériau métallique par rapport à la section d'oscillation de façon à ce que la direction de polarisation prédéterminée soit alignée sur la direction dans laquelle le matériau métallique se prolonge ; à projeter un faisceau électromagnétique en provenance de la section d'oscillation en direction du matériau métallique revêtu ; à détecter l'intensité de réflexion d'un faisceau électromagnétique réfléchi par le matériau métallique revêtu au moyen de la section de détection ; et à comparer l'intensité de réflexion du faisceau électromagnétique en provenance du matériau métallique constituant l'objet de diagnostic, détectée lors de l'étape de détection, avec l'intensité de réflexion du faisceau électromagnétique réfléchi par un matériau métallique revêtu d'une composition polymère servant de matériau de référence, le revêtement de celui-ci présentant la même épaisseur E que celle du matériau métallique constituant l'objet de diagnostic et la quantité de film d'oxyde du matériau métallique de référence se révélant inférieure à une quantité critique.
