1、Designation: F 483 08Standard Test Method forTotal Immersion Corrosion Test for Aircraft MaintenanceChemicals1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 483; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of la
2、st revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the determinati
3、on of the corro-siveness of aircraft maintenance chemicals on aircraft metalswith time under conditions of total immersion by a combina-tion of weight change measurements and visual qualitativedetermination of change.1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard. The values in pare

16、ed States.7. Precleaning Test Specimens7.1 Immerse the test specimens in a beaker of mineralspirits, Type II, conforming to Specification D 235 at roomtemperature and swab the surface of the individual specimenthoroughly using clean forceps to hold the test specimen andthe cotton swab.7.2 Shake off
17、excess solvent. Transfer and immerse the testspecimens separately several times in a beaker of methyln-propyl ketone.37.3 Shake off excess methyl n-propyl ketone and dry in avacuum desiccator or in a low-temperature oven at 120 6 5C(2486 5F) for 15 min. (If oven dried, remove to dessicatorand cool t
18、o ambient.)8. Conditioning8.1 Ratio of Area of Immersed Metal to Volume ofSolutionThe ratio of area of immersed metal to volume ofsolution shall be 8 mL per cm2. Use fresh solution for each setof replicates.8.2 Solution Concentration:8.2.1 Unless otherwise specified, test the specimens insolutions o
19、f the maintenance chemical in the concentratedas-received condition and at the recommended use dilutionusing water that conforms to Specification D 1193, Type IV. Incase the maintenance chemical is not soluble to the extentnoted, record this fact and continue with the test.8.2.2 If water is not used
20、 as the diluent, record the type andspecification of diluent used in the test.8.3 TemperatureUnless otherwise specified, the test tem-perature shall be 38 6 3C (100 6 5F).9. Procedure9.1 Weigh three of four specimens of the same alloy to thenearest 0.1 mg.9.2 Immerse three weighed specimens of each
