25、 ISO3651-2:1998 BSI 04-1999 iii Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body inter
26、ested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
27、 Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least75% of the member bodies casting a vote. Inter
28、national Standard ISO3651-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 17, Steel, Subcommittee SC 7, Methods of testing (other than mechanical tests and chemical analysis). This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO3651-2:1976), which has been technically revised. ISO3651 consis
29、ts of the following parts, under the general title Determination of resistance to intergranular corrosion of stainless steels: Part 1: Austenitic and ferritic-austenitic (duplex) stainless steels Corrosion test in nitric acid medium by measurement of loss in mass (Huey test); Part 2: Ferritic, auste
30、nitic and ferritic-austenitic (duplex) stainless steels Corrosion test in media containing sulfuric acid. Annex A and Annex B of this part of ISO3651 are for information only.iv blankENISO 3651-2:1998 BSI 04-1999 1 Introduction The term “intergranular corrosion test” denotes the corrosion test carri
31、ed out by means of preferential attack of the grain boundaries. Ferritic, austenitic and ferritic-austenitic (duplex) stainless steels may be subject to such an attack when they are held at a temperature between about500C and1000C. This heat cycle, which may provoke sensitization to intergranular co
32、rrosion, may occur during hot-forming (forging, rolling) as the result of incorrect solution treatment or during a welding operation. NOTEIn the field of application of this test, intergranular corrosion may be connected with the presence along the grain boundaries of a chromium-depleted region due
33、to precipitation of chromium carbides, sigma phase or other intermetallic phases. 1 Scope This part of ISO3651 specifies methods for the determination of the resistance to intergranular corrosion of ferritic, austenitic and ferritic-austenitic (duplex) stainless steels in media containing sulfuric a
34、cid. It also specifies the purposes which may be assigned to the test. The test methods included are: method A: the16% sulfuric acid/copper sulfate test (Monypenny Strauss test); method B: the35% sulfuric acid/copper sulfate test; method C: the 40% sulfuric acid/ferric sulfate test. The methods are
35、applicable to stainless steels supplied in the form of cast, rolled or forged products and tubes and intended for use in a mildly oxidizing acid medium (for example, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid). Unless specified in the product standard, the method to be used, A, B or C, shall form the subject of
36、 an agreement between the interested parties. Annex A gives examples of application of the three methods on stainless steels. NOTEIt is important to note that the result of the corrosion test is only strictly valid for the corrosive medium used in the test. It constitutes a basis for estimating the
37、resistance to intergranular corrosion but may not be used to check resistance to other forms of corrosion (general corrosion, pitting, stress corrosion, etc.). It is necessary for the user to adapt the specified corrosion test to the use which will be made of the alloy. These test should, in no case
38、, be considered as an absolute criterion of the quality of the metal. 2 Purpose of the test This intergranular corrosion test may have either of the purposes given in2.1 and 2.2. 2.1 Verification of the intrinsic resistance of the steel to intergranular corrosion This verification applies only to lo
39、w carbon steels (C 0,03%) and stabilized steels specified for resistance to intergranular corrosion. The metal is inspected after having undergone a heat treatment for sensitization which can be a heat treatment or welding for sensitization (see clause3). 2.2 Inspection of the efficiency of the solu
40、tion treatment This inspection is only carried out on thin products for which the cooling speed may be made sufficiently rapid. It is only of interest for the steels which are not defined in2.1. The metal is inspected in the state in which it is delivered to the user, without heat treatment for sens
41、itization. 3 Sensitization treatment 3.1 Sensitization heat treatment In order to verify the intrinsic resistance to intergranular corrosion (see2.1), it is necessary to carry out a heat treatment for sensitization for stabilized steels and steels with low carbon content. The sensitization heat trea
42、tment can be: T1: heating the specimen at700C 10C for30 minutes followed by water cooling; T2: heating the specimen at650C 10C for10 minutes followed by water cooling. The above defined treatments only apply to austenitic and duplex steels. The type of sensitization heat treatment shall be defined i
43、n the product standard or in the order. If not specified, heat treatment T1 shall be applied. 3.2 Sensitization by welding Sensitization by the preparation of welded test pieces may be used as an alternative to3.1, by agreement between the interested parties. Test pieces which are not solution annea
44、led after welding shall be tested in the as-welded condition. No additional sensitization heat treatment shall be performed. Sensitization by welding applies to all the stainless steels covered by this part of ISO3651. 4 Corrosion test 4.1 Principle A test piece, prepared as specified in 4.2 and 4.3
45、, is immersed in a solution according to method A, B orC for a specified time. The test piece is then subjected to a bend test. The convex surface of the test piece is examined after bending in order to reveal any cracks caused by intergranular corrosion.ENISO 3651-2:1998 2 BSI 04-1999 For small dia
46、meter tubes, up to60mm (tube diameter shall be compatible with the aperture of the flask containing the solution), a flattening test is used instead of the bend test. 4.2 Test pieces 4.2.1 Dimensions The test piece shall have a total surface area of15cm 2to35cm 2 . In the case of sheets with a thick
47、ness greater than6mm, the test piece shall have a maximum thickness of6mm and one of the rolled surfaces shall be retained. The test pieces are selected from the product as defined in the product standard. In case of dispute, a flat test piece, when possible, shall be used having the following dimen
48、sions. These dimensions should be used in relation to the available bending apparati: thickness between2mm and6mm; width at least10mm; length at least50mm. 4.2.2 Welded test pieces Welded test pieces are prepared as follows. For flat products, two pieces about100mm long and about50mm wide are welded
49、 together and the test piece is cut according toFigure 1. For tubes with a circumferential weld, the test piece is cut according toFigure 2. When four pieces are welded together to form a cross weld, the first-laid weld bead shall be in the longitudinal direction of the test piece as shown in Figure 3. If the thickness of the material is 6mm the test piece shall be machined down to6mm from one side. The retained surface shall form the convex side of the test piece after bending. For welded tubes with ou
