19、dard and by reference to Annex A (normative) to verify that the requirements of the relevant material standard, technical specification or order have been met. 4.2 Product surface examination 4.2.1 General Examination shall be performed on the entire surface of the product in the delivery heat treat

20、ment condition unless otherwise agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser. Handling zones which may cause imperfect etching shall be defined and agreed between the manufacturer and the purchaser, and shall not be taken into account in the evaluation. 4.2.2 Surface preparation Preparation sha

21、ll not alter, contaminate or cold work the surface structure. The product shall be cleaned and degreased to ensure uniform etching. 4.2.3 Macroetching The etching method to be used shall be agreed between the manufacturer and purchaser. A list of typical etching reagents and conditions are given in

22、Table 1. All structural characteristics, particularly the segregation resulting from solidification of the ingot shall be revealed. After etching, the surfaces shall be cleaned in a way which does not affect the quality of the contrast and shall be protected from deterioration and contamination unti

23、l inspection is carried out. 4.2.4 Examination Examination shall be carried out under a minimum light intensity of 250 Lux. Examination shall normally be performed without magnification but when necessary may be supplemented by the use of a magnification up to a maximum of 12. In case of doubt or wh

24、en the structural features are unusual, a micrographic examination of the affected area shall be made in accordance with clause 5.

The location and orientation of the plane section shall be as

26、required by the relevant technical specification or order. The cutting method shall not cause damage to the structure. Slices shall be of sufficient thickness to allow further examination perpendicular to this plane section if required. 4.3.2 Surface preparation The surface to be examined shall be p

27、repared in such a way that any contamination and mechanical alteration of the surface are avoided or eliminated. The resulting surface shall be cleaned and degreased to ensure uniform etching. 4.3.3 Macroetching Wherever possible, electro-chemical techniques shall be used. The etching method to be u

28、sed, shall be carried out by a technical agreed between manufacturer and purchaser. A list of typical etching reagents and conditions is given in Table 1. Etching shall reveal all structure characteristics, particularly segregation resulting from the ingot solidification. After etching the surface s

29、hall be cleaned in a way which does not affect the quality of the contrast and shall be protected from deterioration and contamination until inspection is carried out.
