United States18. Test Solution8.1

16、Preparation of Test Solution:8.1.1 The test solution shall have the following composi-tion:NH4Cl (1.0 M)NH4NO3(0.25 M)(NH4)2C4H4O6(0.01 M)H2O2(0.09 M)8.1.2 Dissolve 53.5 g ammonium chloride (NH4Cl), 20.0 gammonium nitrate (NH4NO3), 1.8 g ammonium tartrate(NH4)2C4H4O6), and 10 mL of 30 % stock soluti

17、on hydrogenperoxide (H2O2) in a small amount of water. After dissolving,mix the components together thoroughly and adjust the finaldilution to 1 L.NOTE 1If a stock solution of the above chemicals is to be stored, thehydrogen peroxide should not be added until the solution is heated for thetest.8.2 T

18、he solution will have a typical pH of 5.2 to 5.4.8.3 The solution shall be used in sufficient quantity toprovide a volume-to-exposed specimen surface area ratio of atleast 100 L/m2(65 mL/in.2).8.4 The temperature of the solution shall be maintained at65 6 1C (150 6 2F).9. Sampling9.1 The procedure f

19、or sampling mill products is covered inproduct specifications, or otherwise, and is considered outsidethe scope of this standard.10. Test Specimen10.1 While this test method can be used with any form ofspecimen or part that can be immersed in the test solution, it ispreferred that specimens be at le

20、ast 40 by 100 mm (1.5 by 4.0in.) with the metal working direction in the 40-mm (1.5-in.)dimension.10.2 The specimens should be sawed or machined to mini-mize introducing residual stresses in edges during preparationof the specimens (sheared edges are allowed only if the edgesare sufficiently dressed

21、 or filed down a distance equal to thethickness of the specimen in order to remove metal deformedby shearing).11. Standardization11.1 To provide an indication when some inadvertent de-viation from the correct test conditions occurs, it is necessaryto expose to the test at regular intervals a control

22、 specimen ofa material of known susceptibility. This control should exhibitthe same degree of exfoliation each time it is included in thetest.11.2 The control may be any material of the Al-Mg seriesthat has a well-documented susceptibility to exfoliationcorrosion, preferably one with an intermediate

23、 susceptibility.12. Procedure12.1 Degrease the specimens with a suitable solvent. Afterdegreasing, prepare specimens as follows: Etch 1 min in 5 %by weight sodium hydroxide solution at 80C (176F), rinse inwater, desmut 30 s in concentrated nitric acid at roomtemperature, rinse with distilled or deio

24、nized water, air dry.NOTE 2If specimens are not to be immersed in the test solutionimmediately, they should be stored in a desiccator maintained at less than1 % relative humidity (use fresh desiccant such as activated alumina oranhydrous calcium sulfate).812.2 Use fresh solution at the start of each

25、 test.12.3 Immerse the specimens vertically with the top edge ofthe specimens at least 25 mm (1 in.) below the surface of thesolution and the bottom edge at least 25 mm above the bottomof the container.12.4 Immerse the specimens in the test solution continu-ously for 24 h.12.5 Rinse the specimens ge

26、ntly in running tap waterimmediately after removal from the solution, then soak inconcentrated nitric acid at room temperature until they appearclean, again rinse in water, and air dry.12.5.1 Air-blast drying is to be avoided in order to preventmechanical removal of exfoliated metal.13. Rating of Sp

27、ecimens13.1 The following codes and classifications shall be usedfor reporting the visual appearance of corroded specimens.Code ClassificationN No appreciable attackP PittingE Exfoliation13.2 Descriptions of the various classifications, which areillustrated in Figs. 1 and 2,4are as follows:13.2.1 N

28、(no appreciable attack)Surface may be etched ordiscolored.13.2.2 P (Pitting)Includes discrete pitting or pit-blistering. In the latter case, attack results in a slight undercut-ting of the surface. Pitting or pit-blistering is to be expectedand may occur in varying degrees of severity, as shown in F

29、ig.1; it should not be construed as exfoliation.13.2.3 E (Exfoliation)Visible lifting of the surface. Arange of exfoliation can occur in varying degrees of severity, asshown in Fig. 2.13.3 Ratings of different levels of pitting or exfoliation maybe indicated PA, PB, PC or EA, EB, EC, ED as shown in
