Peroxin test used in electroless nickel plating

I am doing high phosphorus electroless nickel plating process on EN series metal jobs with sand blasting as the pretreatment.I want to know whether there is any test named as Peroxin test used to check the plated components. Can I please get the details of this test.

I am not familiar with it, but please tell us why you think there is such a test -- and what the test is used to test for -- and maybe we can help you track down something useful. Perhaps something to do with peroxide, but I suspect that the situation involves using the EN in some sort of Peroxin processing context rather than being a more general type of test. Good luck.

First of two simultaneous responses --

Closest thing that I can think of would be a Feroxyl test for complete plating on iron.

I have not heard of any such test for EN either. As far as I know peroxin refers to proteins in genetic profiling. Could you have the name of the test confused with something else?
