T
16、his European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by August1995, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by August1995. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the
17、 following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, UnitedKingdom.ENISO6509:1995 BSI 01-2000 3 1 Scope and field of application
18、 This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of the dezincification resistance of brass exposed to fresh or saline waters. The method may be used for control or research purposes, but the field of application is not specified. 2 Principle Exposure of test pieces to copper(II
19、) chloride solution followed by microscopic examination. 3 Reagents and materials Use only reagents of recognized analytical grade and distilled water or water of equivalent purity. 3.1 Copper(II) chloride, 1% (m/m) solution, freshly prepared. Dissolve12,7g of copper(II) chloride dihydrate (CuCl 2 .
20、2H 2 O) in water and make up the volume to1000ml. 3.2 Phenolic resins, or other non-conducting material with similar properties, for embedding the test pieces. 3.3 Ethanol, for cleaning the test pieces. 4 Apparatus (seeFigure 1) 4.1 Beaker, of glass, covered with suitable plastic foil, for example p
21、olyethylene, secured with elastic thread or another method of sealing using non-metallic material. 4.2 Thermostatically controlled water or oil bath, capable of being controlled at75 5 C. 4.3 Optical microscope, with a scale. 5 Test pieces 5.1 The test pieces shall be taken in such a way, for exampl
22、e by sawing and grinding with light pressure, that the properties of the materials are unaffected. 5.2 Not less than two test pieces shall be taken from each sample supplied for testing. 5.2.1 For forgings and castings, at least one test piece shall be taken from the area with the thinnest section a
23、nd at least one from the area with the thickest section. 5.2.2 In the case of materials with a specific extrusion or rolling direction, for example plates or bars, surfaces both parallel and perpendicular to the extrusion or rolling direction shall be tested. In addition, in the case of rods, all te
24、st pieces, whether transverse or longitudinal, shall be cut in such a way as to include points midway between the axis and the periphery. 5.3 The area of each test piece to be exposed shall be approximately100mm 2 . If the size of the component or the cross-section of the rod to be tested is too sma
25、ll to provide test areas of this size, the largest possible test area shall be taken. 6 Preparation of test pieces 6.1 The test pieces shall be embedded in the phenolic resin(3.2), and the test surfaces ground using wet abrasive paper, finishing with500 grade or finer. (SeeFigure 2.) 6.2 The test su
26、rfaces shall be cleaned with the ethanol(3.3) prior to testing. 7 Procedure 7.1 Positioning of test pieces for test The test pieces shall be placed in the beaker(4.1) containing the copper(II) chloride solution(3.1) so that the test surfaces are vertical and at least15mm above the bottom of the beak
27、er. The plastic foil shall then be placed over the beaker and secured. NOTE250ml of the copper(II) chloride solution are required per100mm 2of exposed surface of the test piece. 7.2 Operating conditions 7.2.1 The beaker containing the test pieces shall be placed in the thermostatically controlled ba
28、th(4.2), the temperature of which shall be maintained at75 5 C during the entire exposure period. 7.2.2 Different alloys shall not be tested simultaneously in the same beaker. 7.3 Duration of test The test pieces shall be exposed continuously for24h. At the end of this period, they shall be removed
29、from the beaker, washed in water, rinsed in the ethanol and allowed to dry. 7.4 Preparation of sections for microscopic examination Microscopic examination of the test pieces shall be carried out as soon as possible after exposure. If thetest pieces are stored before microscopic examination, they sh
30、all be kept in a desiccator. Each test piece shall be sectioned at right angles to the exposed test surface and ground and polished for microscopic examination. The total length of section through the exposed surface shall be not less than5mm. If the dimensions of the test piece make this impossible
31、, the section shall be taken to provide the maximum possible total length. +50 10ENISO6509:1995 4 BSI 01-2000 7.5 Microscopic examination 7.5.1 The microsection prepared from each test area shall be examined using an optical microscope and the maximum depth of dezincification shall be recorded. The
32、appropriate magnification shall be used to provide the greatest accuracy of measurement. 7.5.2 The length of the section examined shall be themaximum possible length. If there is evidence ofedge effects, for example a greater depth of dezincification along the line of the interface between the mount
33、ing material and the brass, themaximum depth of dezincification shall be measured at a sufficient distance from the interface to render such edge effects negligible. Figure 1 Example of test apparatus Figure 2 Embedded test piece with one test surfaceENISO6509:1995 BSI 01-2000 5 7.5.3 For some purpo
34、ses, assessment of the characteristics of dezincification distribution, for example whether the depth of the dezincified zone is constant (layer dezincification) or varies greatly (localized dezincification) and whether the attack islimited to a single phase in the alloy, as well asmeasurements of t
35、he average depth of dezincification, may be required in addition to measurement of the maximum depth of attack. In such cases, the methods to be used shall be laid down in the International Standards which refer to this test or shall be agreed between the parties concerned. 8 Acceptance limits Accep
36、tance limits shall be laid down in the International Standards which refer to this test or shall be agreed between the parties concerned. 9 Test report Unless otherwise specified, the test report shall contain the following information for each material or product being tested: a) the type of produc
37、t, material and manufacturer; b) the number of test pieces, and the total area of exposed test surfaces in square millimetres; c) the length of section examined; d) the magnification employed for microscopic examination; e) the maximum depth of dezincification and, if required, the average depth and
38、 method of measuring it; f) if required, the characteristics of dezincification distribution (see7.5.3); g) other information necessary for assessment; h) the time and place of testing, and the name and title of the person responsible for the test.BS EN ISO 6509:1995 BSI 389 Chiswick High Road Londo
