21、ne the ability of an adhesive to corrode a brass substrate under the influence of an applied voltage and high humidity. The temperature, humidity, ageing period and applied voltage are chosen to ensure the maximum differentiation between the corrosivity of different adhesives and are not intended to
22、 represent any particular service condition. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

25、d method measures essentially an electrochemical attack. 4 Principle Two brass electrodes are held in contact with a flat sample of the cured adhesive. The assembly is placed in an environment with a relative humidity of 92 % at 42 C and a direct current voltage of 100 V is applied across the electr
26、odes for four days. Following this the brass surface is examined and the extent of the tarnishing and/or corrosion decided on the basis of discolouration. 5 Products, materials and apparatus 5.1 Solvents. Alcohol pure: for example propan-2-ol or ethanol. 5.2 Brass electrode, consisting of 0,1 mm thi

The length of the foil shall be adapted to the test equipment in accordance with ISO 426 (all parts). 5.3 Etching solution, consisting of 73 % concentrated sulfuric acid (98 %), 26 % concentrated nitric acid (63 %), 0,5 % sodium chloride, 0,5 % carbon bla

29、5.6 Magnifier, with a magnification of 2,5 . 5.7 Electrode and clamping, in accordance with Figure 1. This shall be constructed from inert insulating materials which do not cause additional corrosion under the test conditions. The brass test foils shall make contact with the entire test area of the
30、test specimen with a pressure of about 0,1 MPa.

31、re 1 Test equipment for assessing the effect of electrolytic corrosion BS EN 1965-2:2011EN 1965-2:2011 (E) 7 6 Preparation of the brass substrate Degrease strips of the foil, about 200 mm long and without any flash, with acetone solvent. Immediately afterwards immerse in the etching solution (5.3) (
32、maintained at 15 C to 25 C) for 15 s. Rinse the foil under running water to remove the etching solution (5.3). Repeat this procedure as necessary until the brass foil has an even, dull lustre. Immediately afterwards immerse the brass foil in pure alcohol (5.1) dry with blotting paper and cut into pi
33、eces of suitable length. 7 Test specimens The thickness of the test specimens shall correspond to the relevant product thickness. The test surfaces shall be machined and flat and be at right angles to the edges. The material to be tested shall protrude a few tenths of a millimetre beyond the holding
34、 plates. Remove any flash left following machining with a sharp knife. Finally clean the machined test specimens with pure alcohol. NOTE The etching solution should be freshly made and used only once. The roughness of the brass surface has an influence on colouration and can lead to faulty assessmen
35、ts. An even, dull surface reveals more marked colourations than a semi-matt or glossy surface. CAUTION The etching solution is corrosive. A minimum of three test specimens shall be used for each evaluation. 8 Procedure Ensure that the surface of the electrode in contact with the brass test foils is
36、not discoloured. Insert the test specimens and test foils in the test equipment using tweezers. Do not handle them under any circumstances. Preheat the test equipment with test specimens and test foils in position to 42 C to 45 C and place it in the warm humid environment. This is to ensure that con
37、densation on the test specimen is avoided. This is critical as liquid water in contact with the test specimens and foils can form an electrolyte, significantly increasing the rate of electrolytic corrosion. Place the preheated, assembled, test fixture in the warm humid environment and connect to the
38、 direct current source. Continue ageing under these conditions for four days. On completion of the above ageing, remove the test equipment from the humidity chamber and cool it to room temperature. Remove the test foils and examine the face in contact with the test specimen with a magnifier (5.1). E
39、xamine with particular attention the positive pole for signs of the green products of corrosion, red colouration (start of dezincification, see EN ISO 8044:1999 for definition) or tarnishing. Examine the negative pole for signs of discolouration. NOTE With some materials, colourations occur during t
40、hese tests which are not due to electrolytic corrosion and are recognizable as light brown to dark layers (tarnishing). These non-corrosive colourations consist of a uniform covering over the width of the test area on the brass foils and occur both at the positive and negative electrodes and result
41、without the application of direct current. Therefore, it is possible to confirm that these colourations are not caused by electrolysis by placing the test equipment in the humidity cabinet but without applying the direct current.
