18、ns or discontinuities which would be detrimentalto its end use when examined in accordance with 8.1.2.8. Test Methods8.1 For Alloys 1 and 2, the properties enumerated in thisspecification shall be determined on specimens prepared inaccordance with the following procedures.8.1.1 Macroscopical:8.1.1.1
19、 For this examination, usually performed on heat-treated or unheat-treated specimens of large diameter wire, rod,tube, and shaped extrusions, specimens shall be machined to a63 rms surface finish or smoother on the transverse section anddegreased.8.1.1.2 Prepare a fresh 1 + 1 aqueous solution of com
20、mer-cial nitric acid to which has been added5gofcopper per litreof solution before use. The solution shall be kept free from dirtand maintained during use at a temperature 24 6 3C.8.1.1.3 Etch the specimens for 3 to 5 min by lowering intothe solution and agitating slowly. Remove periodically todeter
21、mine whether the etching is sufficient. If the specimenstend to stain, adding 25 mL of hydrochloric acid to each litreof solution will minimize the staining. After etching, wash anddry the specimen before examination.8.1.1.4 Examine at 103 magnification.8.1.2 Microscopical:8.1.2.1 Cut and degrease l
