Significance and Use5.1 This test method is an accelerated test for detecting thepresence of residual (internal) stresses that might result infailure of individual parts in storage or in service due to stresscorrosion cracking.5.2 This test method is not intended for use on assemblies orparts u

Reagents and Materials6.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise i
9、ndicated, it is intended thatall reagents conform to the specifications of the Committee onAnalytical Reagent of the American Chemical Society wheresuch specifications are available.3Other grades may be used,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit it

(WarningWhen weighing crystals, the weight ofthe water of crystallization should be taken into consideration.The mercurous nitrate crystals are photosensitive and whenthey have turned yellow are difficult to dissolve.) (WarningCare should be exercised when handling and mixing chemi-cal
18、s. Qualified personnel using appropriate chemical-laboratory techniques should only do the handling and mixing.)6.4.2 Procedure BDissolve 76 g of mercury in 114 mL ofdiluted HNO3(1 part water to 1 part HNO3) (sp gr 1.42).Carefully dilute with distilled water to 1000 mL. This providesa concentration
19、of 100 g of HgNO3after a slight loss due toheating. Add the water in small portions while stirring toprevent local overdilution. This gradual dilution, together withthe excess acid, will prevent precipitation of basic salts ofmercury. Dilute 100 mL of this solution (10 %) with 7 mL ofHNO3(sp gr 1.42
20、) and 893 mL of water. (WarningMercuryis a definite health hazard and therefore equipment for thedetection and removal of mercury vapor produced in volatil-ization is recommended. The use of rubber gloves in testing isadvisable.)6.5 Replenishment of SolutionThe spent solution may bereclaimed by repl

22、solution from a buret with a constantshaking until there is an excess as indicated by the pink color,which persists for several minutes.6.5.4 Add iron (II) sulfate (FeSO4) crystals until the solu-tion, when shaken, becomes clear. Then titrate the solutionwith 0.1 N potassium thiocyanate (KCNS) solut

Repeat this procedurewith 50 mL of a standard 1 weight per volume percent ofHgNO3solution.6.5.5 The ratio, R, of the number of millilitres of KCNSsolution required to titrate the spent solution, to the number ofmillilitres required to titrate the standa

26、iltrate, add two drops (0.1 cm3)of24volume percent ammonium sulfide (NH4)2S.7.2.5 After the second filtering, the filtrate may be dis-carded.NOTE 2If heating is used in either of the previous procedures, thecontainer should be covered with a watch glass to prevent loss of HNO3and water to the atmosp
27、here. After solution is complete, use a smallvolume of retained dilution water to rinse the watch glass into thecontainer.7.2.5.1 Monitor the filtrate to assure it meets appropriatehealth safety standards, or is disposed of properly.7.2.6 The precipitates should be collected and stored withthe mercu
28、ry-contaminated test samples and sold to a licensedmercury disposal-service.8. Sampling and Test Specimen Preparation8.1 The test specimen shall be prescribed in the specifica-tion for the material being tested. In the event that a testspecimen size is not prescribed in a given rod, wire, or tubespe

30、this test.NOTE 3The presence of burrs on the test specimen may contribute toacceleration of liquid-metal embrittlement of the mercurous nitratesolution, if not removed prior to performance of the test.TABLE 1 Replenishment of Spent Mercurous Nitrate Solution to1 % ConcentrationNOTE 1X = 111.1 (1 R)W
