Scope Scope*1.1 These test methods cover a procedure for evaluating the ability of sintered PM stainless steel parts/specimens to resistcorrosion when immersed in a sodium chloride (NaCl) solution.1.2 Corrosion resistance is evaluated by one of two
4、methods. In Method 1, the stainless steel parts/specimens are examinedperiodically and the time to the first appearance of staining or rust is used to indicate the end point. In Method 2, continuedexposure to the sodium chloride solution is used to monitor the extent of corrosion as a function of ti

16、hod 2 has been found useful inalloy screening and process optimization studies.5. Significance and Use5.1 The ability of sintered powder metallurgy stainless steel parts/specimens to resist corrosion when immersed in sodiumchloride solution is important to their end use. Causes of unacceptable corro
17、sion may be incorrect alloy, contamination of the partsby iron or some other corrosion-promoting material or improper sintering of the parts (for example, undesirable carbide and nitrideformations caused by poor lubricant burnoff or improper sintering atmosphere).5.2 This standard may be part of a p
18、urchase agreement between the PM parts producer (seller) and the user of the parts(purchaser) (Method 1). It may also be used to optimize part or specimen production parameters (Method 2).6.

Reagents7.1 A sodium chloride solution consisting of 5 6 0.1 % (by mass) NaCl shall be prepared using distilled or deionized waterconforming to Specification D

Test Specimen8.1 Usually test parts are sintered parts, but they may also be standard transverse rupture bars as defined in Test Method B528.A minimum of fiveten parts/specimens shall be used for each test.test except for routine testing of production parts, where the useof five p
22、arts is acceptable. The use of ten parts/specimens is, however, recommended for evaluating new materials/processes.8.1.1 The density of the parts or specimens as well as any post sintering treatments, (that is, coining, repressing, machining, etc.)shall be stated. Parts or specimens shall be free of
23、 oil, dirt, grease and fingerprints. If they have been cleaned, the cleaning methodshall be stated. Refer to Practices A380 and G1 for recommended cleaning practices.8.1.2 The use of tongs or gloves, or both, to prevent contamination in handling is suggested.NOTE 1Iron or low-alloy steel particles p
24、resent on the surface of the sintered stainless steel parts/speciments can be revealed by placing theparts/specimens in a concentrated solution of copper sulfate, CuSO4.

25、ope.9. Preparation of Apparatus9.1 Soak previously used jars and glass beads in concentrated HCl for at least 12 h to remove rust stains; rinse with distilledor deionized water, then rinse again and allow to dry.9.1.1 Place the glass beads in the bottom of the beaker. Use a sufficient number of bead
26、s to keep the test specimen off the bottomof the jar.10. Procedure10.1 Method 1:10.1.1 Place one part or specimen per jar on top of the glass beads. Add the NaCl solution to each jar so that the volume ofsolution, in millilitres, is at least five times the mass of the specimen in grams. The distance
27、 from the surface of the part/specimento the top of the solution should be at least 25 mm. The ratio of the volume of air to the volume of solution in a jar is recommendedto be about 1:2 to 1:3. Remove air bubbles attached to the specimen surface and glass beads by swirling the solution or movingthe
28、 specimen with a glass stirring rod. Close the jars. Record the date and the time of the start of the test. Store the immersed testspecimens at a temperature of 21 to 24 C.10.1.2 Examine the parts/specimens after 12, 1, 2, 4, and 8 h and at 24 h intervals from the onset of the test. Thereafter, thei
29、nterval may be lengthened as time progresses until the first appearance of rust or stain. The corrosion life of a part or specimenis the time of the previous examination, that is, the last examination taken before the observation of stain or rust. Do not includecorrosion which appears at the interfa
30、ce between a part/specimen and the glass beads. This is considered to be crevice corrosionand may be evaluated by Test Method G48.10.2 Method 2:10.2.1 Method 2 follows the procedure of Method 1 through 10.1.1. It continues with periodic examination as in 10.1.2, exceptthat testing continues beyond t
31、he first appearance of stain or rust. In Method 2, for each examination, the parts/specimens areranked for the degree of staining or corrosion according to the following:AThe part/specimen is free from stain or rust.BThe first sign of stain or rust appears or up to 1 % of surface is covered by stain
32、 or rust.CMore than 1 and up to 25 % of surface is covered by stain or rust.DMore than 25 % of surface is covered by stain or rust.10.2.1.1 Examples of ratings exhibiting these conditions are shown in Fig. 1.10.2.1.2 Do not include corrosion which appears at the interface between the test specimens
33、and the glass beads. This isconsidered to be crevice corrosion and is not the subject of this test method.As a part/specimen shows increasing amounts of rust,it may become necessary to use a pair of tongs to remove it from the solution so as to distinguish between loose and adherent rust.Rinsing sho
34、uld not be used because loose rust may be washed off.10.2.2 Record the results of the timed observation at the intervals used. Table 1 shows a typical example of a data collectiontable.10.2.3 Plot the percent of parts/specimens having an A, B, or C class rating for suitable time intervals on a logar
35、ithmic timescale.10.2.4 Draw curves to fit the data. A typical plot is shown in Fig. 2. When plotting the data for the “B” and “C” ratings, it isthe percentage holding a “B or better” rating and a “C or better” rating that is plotted. For example, in Table 1, a “B or better”rating is held by 100% of
36、 the specimens for up to 168 h. A “C or better” rating is held by 100% of the specimens for up to 496h.11. Report11.1 Method 1:11.1.1 Report the individual corrosion lives in hours as determined in 10.1.2 and calculate the arithmetic average. Acceptancecriteria shall be mutually agreed upon between
37、purchaser and seller.11.1.2 Density of parts/specimens as well as any post-sintering treatments and cleaning methods (if cleaned) shall be recorded.B895 15311.2 Method 2:11.2.1 Report the time when 50 % of the parts/specimens have an A, B, or C class rating.11.2.2 Photographs of tested parts, indica
