Insuch
30、cases, the sample section must include regions that correspond to thetop of the ingot.NOTE 4Product section size information at which the inclusionratings were taken should be included.12. Thermal Expansion Characteristics12.1 The average linear coefficients of thermal expansionshall be within the l
31、imits specified in Table 4.13. Test for Thermal Expansion13.1 Heat the specimen in a non-oxidizing atmosphere for 1h at 1000C. Cool at a rate not to exceed 300C per hour.13.2 Determine the thermal expansion characteristics inaccordance with Test Method E 228.14. Transformation14.1 (UNS No. K94630 on
32、ly) The temperature of thegamma-to-alpha transformation shall be below 78.5C whenthe material is tested in accordance with Section 16. However,for material whose smallest dimension is over78 in. (22.2 mm),some localized transformation, acceptable to the purchaser,may be tolerated.14.2 The temperatur
33、e of the gamma-alpha transformationfor UNS No. K94620 is well below 78.5C. Tests fortransformation in this alloy, if necessary, shall be negotiatedbetween supplier and purchaser.14.3 For alloy UNS No. K94630, consult the nonmandatoryappendix of Specification F 15 for applicable thermal expan-sion in
34、formation based on producer heat data and recom-mended thermal expansion values over a wide range oftemperatures.15. Test for Transformation15.1 Cut the specimen from any part of the material, butpreferably including the entire cross section, degrease it, thenheat treat it as described in 13.1. When
35、 cool, polish the crosssection of the specimen and etch (Note 5) it in accordance withMethods E3. Then subject the specimen to the temperatureproduced by an excess of dry ice in methanol (78.5C) for atleast 4 h. After the low-temperature treatment, examine thespecimen at a magnification of 1503 for
36、the presence of theacicular crystals characteristic of the alpha phase. Becausethese crystals may occur only in small localized areas, examinecarefully the entire polished cross section.NOTE 5A suggested etchant is a solution of three parts by volume ofconcentrated hydrochloric acid and one part of
37、concentrated nitric acidsaturated with cupric chloride (CuCl22H2O). This etchant is moreeffective when allowed to stand for 20 min after mixing. After severalhours it loses its strength and should be discarded at the end of the day.Etching is best accomplished by swabbing the specimen with cottonsoa
38、ked with the etchant. Etching is usually complete when the surface ofthe metal appears to have turned dull.15.2 Specimens that show no transformation and that showpartial transformation are illustrated in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2,respectively.16. Chemical Analysis16.1 This describes the chemical analysis t
39、echniques to beused in case of dispute. Wherever applicable, the analysisprocedures described in Practices D 1971, Test Methods E 354,E 1019 and Practice E 1060 should be utilized.16.2 Do chemical analysis as follows:16.2.1 Carbon, Sulfur, Combustion method.16.2.2 Aluminum, Chromium, MagnesiumAtomic
40、 absorp-tion method.16.2.3 All Other Elements Shown in Table 1 (excluding Iron,Nickel and Cobalt)Atomic absorption, optical emission orinductively coupled plasma (ICP or ICAP) methods.NOTE 6The iron, nickel and cobalt requirements are nominal (seeTable 1).17.
