49、Note 5). Examine the specimenat a magnification of 1503 for the presence of the acicularcrystals of the martensite phase. Because these crystals mayoccur only in small localized areas, examine carefully theentire polished cross section.NOTE 5A suggested etchant is a solution of 3 parts by volume ofconcentrated hydrochloric acid and 1 part by volume of concentrated nitricacid saturated with cupric chloride (CuCl22H2O).
