Signifi
27、cance and Use4.1 This practice covers all aspects of sampling and preparing steel and iron for chemical analysis as defined in Test Methods,Practices, and Definitions A751 and Specification A48/A48M. Such subjects as sampling location and the sampling of lots aredefined.4.2 It is intended that this
28、practice include most requirements for sampling steel and iron for analysis. Standard analyticalmethods that reference this practice need contain only special modifications and exceptions.4.3 It is assumed that all who use these procedures will be trained samplers capable of performing common sampli
29、ng operationsskillfully and safely. It is expected that only proper sampling equipment will be used.5. Hazards and Safety Precautions5.1 Provide personal protective equipment to minimize the risk of injury during sampling and sample preparation methods.Provisions shall include protective clothing, h
30、and protection, and face visors resistant to splashes of liquid metal for use duringthe sampling of liquid metal; protective clothing and hand, eye, and hearing protection for use during the sampling and samplepreparation of solid metal; and respiratory protection for use where necessary.5.2 The use
31、 of machinery for sampling and sample preparation shall be in accordance with appropriate national standards.Grinding operations used for surface preparation may be covered by national legislation.5.3 Reference should be made to appropriate national regulations with respect to the use of solvents fo
32、r the cleaning and dryingof samples and test portions.6. Requirements for Sampling and Sample Preparation6.1 General:6.1.1 This section describes the general requirements for the sample and for the sampling and sample preparation of iron andsteel. Special requirements apply to each category of liqui
33、d and solid metal, and these requirements are described in the relevantsection.6.1.2 The sequence of sampling and sample preparation of liquid iron and steel and cast iron and steel products is shown in Fig.1. Special considerations apply to pig irons (see Section 10).6.2 Sample:6.2.1 Quality:6.2.1.
34、1 Sampling practices shall be designed to provide an analytical sample that is representative of the mean chemicalcomposition of the melt or of the sample product.6.2.1.2 Ensure that the sample is sufficiently homogeneous with respect to chemical composition so that inhomogeneity doesnot appreciably
35、 contribute to the error variability of the method of analysis. In the case of a sample taken from a melt, however,some variability in analysis, both within and between samples for analysis, may be unavoidable. This variability will form aninherent part of the repeatability and reproducibility of th
36、e analysis.6.2.1.3 Ensure that the sample is free from surface coatings and from moisture, dirt, or other forms of contamination.6.2.1.4 The sample should be free from voids, cracks, and porosity and from fins, laps, or other surface defects.6.2.1.5 Take particular care when selecting and preparing
37、the sample where a sample taken from a melt is expected to beheterogeneous or contaminated in any way.E1806 1836.2.1.6 A sample taken from a melt shall be cooled in such a manner that the chemical composition and metallurgical structureof the sample is consistent from sample to sample.6.2.1.7 It is
38、important to recognize that analysis by some spectrochemical methods may be influenced by the metallurgicalstructure of the sample, particularly in the case of irons with white and grey iron structures, and steels in the as-cast and wroughtconditions.6.2.2 Size:6.2.2.1 Ensure that the dimensions of
39、a laboratory sample in the form of a solid mass are sufficient to permit additional samplesfor analysis to be taken for reanalysis when necessary using an alternative method of analysis.6.2.2.2 A sample shall be prepared consisting of a sufficient mass to provide for any reanalysis necessary. Genera
40、lly, a mass of100 g will be sufficient for a sample in the form of chips or powder.6.2.2.3 The dimensional requirements for a sample in the form of a solid mass will depend upon the method selected foranalysis. In the case of atomic emission and X-ray fluorescence spectrometric methods, the shape an
41、d size of the sample will bedetermined by the dimensions of the sample chamber. The dimensions for samples given in this practice are for guidance only.Refer to Test Method E415 for sample size requirements for atomic emission spectrometry.6.2.3 Identification:FIG. 1 Sequence of Sampling and Sample
42、Preparation of (a) Liquid Iron and Steel and (b) Cast Iron and Steel ProductsE1806 1846.2.3.1 Assign the sample a unique identification to determine the melt or sample product from which it was taken, and ifnecessary, the process conditions of the melt or the location of the laboratory sample in the
43、 sample product. For pig iron, this shallidentify the consignment or part of a consignment and the increment from which it was taken.6.2.3.2 Use labeling or some equivalent method of marking to ensure that the assigned identification remains associated withthe sample for analysis.6.2.3.3 Record the
44、identification of the sample to ensure that confusion cannot arise as to the identity of the item to which theanalysis and records refer.6.2.4 Conservation:6.2.4.1 Provide adequate storage facilities to segregate and protect the sample. During and after preparation, store the samplein a manner which
45、 prevents contamination or chemical change.6.2.4.2 Keep the sample, or the laboratory sample in the form of a solid mass, for a sufficient period of time to permit retestingif necessary.6.2.5 Arbitration:6.2.5.1 Samples intended for arbitration shall be prepared jointly by the supplier and purchaser
46、 or by their representatives. Keepa record of the methods used for preparing samples.6.2.5.2 Both parties or their representatives seal containers with the samples intended for arbitration. Unless agreed to thecontrary, the representatives of each party responsible for the preparation of samples wil
47、l keep these containers.6.3 Selection of a Sample:6.3.1 Sample from a Melt:6.3.1.1 Melts are sampled at various stages in the manufacturing process for the purposes of monitoring and controlling theprocess. Samples can be taken during the casting of the melt to verify chemical composition in accorda
48、nce with the specificationof the cast product. In the case of liquid metal intended for the production of a casting, the analytical sample may be selected fromtest bars or blocks specially cast from the same metal as that of the casting for purposes of mechanical testing in accordance withthe produc
49、t standard.6.3.1.2 Sampling practices shall be designed for melts to provide samples during a particular manufacturing process inaccordance with requirements for sample quality (see 6.2.1). The sample obtained from a melt usually is in the form of a smallingot, a cylindrical or rectangular block, or a chill-cast disk or a combination of a disk with one or more attached pins, in somecases small lugs are attached to a disk sample.NOTE 1Sampling probes for use with liquid iron and steel may be obtained from a number of suppliers.
