Significance and Use4.1 The routine measurement of the ductility of electrode-posited and autocatalytically deposited metal coatings can beuseful in process control, especially when the electroplatingprocess is used for decorative and engineering purposes.5.

Test Specimen6.1 Flat specimens, 10 mm wide, and not less than 150 mmlong, shall be cut from the electroplated or coated article if theshape permits, no closer than 25 mm from the edges.

Basis metals that have lowductility can initiate cracks that
11、can propagate through thecoatings. The procedure indicated in 6.2 shall then be followed.6.2 When the shape is such that a test specimen cannot beobtained from the part, a test panel may be prepared ofappropriate basis metal, such as low-carbon steel (see 6.1),with the same coating system in the sam

Brass or copper panels may be usedinstead of copper-electroplated zinc alloy panels.6.3 The long edges of the test pieces shall be rounded orchamfered by filing or grinding.7. Procedure7.1 Place the largest
16、mandrel in the vise. Bend the testspecimen, with the coating outward, over the mandrel so that asthe bend progresses the test specimen will remain in contactwith the top of the mandrel.

A procedure to overcome hydro-gen embrittlement is covered in Guide B 177.7.1.1 Small cracks not greater than 1.5 mm long, confined tothe edges of the test specimen do not signify failure.7.1.2 At times, no single crack may deve
19、lop over the convexsurface. If jagged cracks, or a series of shorter cracks develop(excluding edges), they signify failure.7.2 In multiple coatings, cracking may occur in the outercoatings only. In the case of nickel, cracks may extend throughthe nickel to an intermediate copper layer or to the basi

Apositive test for copper or iron signifies failure.7.3 Except for very ductile coatings, the apparent ductility isan inverse function of the thickness. If the test is to be used toevaluate the electroplating or autocatalytic process
21、 by periodi-cally testing the ductility of coatings produced by the process,all specimens used must have approximately the same coatingand total thickness.8. Calculation8.1 Determine the elongation as follows:E 5 100 T/D 1 T!where:E = percent elongation,T = total thickness of the basis metal and dep

Precision and Bias9.1 This practice is a useful one for routine control of theductility of metallic coatings. The largest source of error is inthe detection of crack initiatio
