25、ISO 7441:2015(E)IntroductionBimetallic corrosion occurs when a metal in electrical contact with a more noble metal corrodes at a higher rate than it would in the same environment but without this contact.Bimetallic corrosion in the atmosphere, in contrast to that in electrolytes, is characterized by
26、 a large potential drop between the anode and the cathode. Therefore, bimetallic corrosion is usually limited to a distance within about 0,5 cm from the point of contact1.The determination of bimetallic corrosion in atmospheric exposure tests can be made with several methods, each with its own advan
27、tages. Three standardized tests are compared and described in this International Standard: rectangular plates; washers; wire on bolt.The standard starts with an overview and comparison of the three methods, with the purpose of aiding the selection of an appropriate test method. Test procedures for t
28、he rectangular plate and washer test are included in this standard since no independent standard describes these methods while those who wish to use the wire on bolt test need to consult ASTM G116 for a complete description of the method.The standard describes how to derive the bimetallic effect, wh
29、ich is a relative measure of the bimetallic corrosion of a metal compared to the corrosion of the same metal but without the bimetallic effect. A high galvanic effect does not necessarily mean that the bimetallic corrosion rate is high. Therefore, valuable complementary information is the classifica
30、tion of the corrosivity of the test site according to ISO 92232.

40、ion of bimetallic corrosion in atmospheric exposure tests can be made with several methods. Three of these methods are compared and described in this International Standard: rectangular plates; washers; wire on bolt.An overview and comparison of methods are shown in Table 1. Each configuration has i
41、ts own advantages and the selection of method shall be based on the needs of the test programme. The main advantage with rectangular plate test is the possibility of evaluating the mechanical properties. The washer test is the only method where it is not necessary to know in advance which material i
42、s the anode. The short exposure time is the main advantage of the wire on bolt test.Table 1 Comparison of rectangular plates, washers and wire on bolt for conducting test assessing bimetallic corrosion in the atmosphereEffect Rectangular plates Washers Wire on boltSensitivity (exposure time) 1 year

46、ens5.1 Types of specimens5.1.1 GeneralWhen determining the risk of bimetallic corrosion, depending on the particular test, the specimens will not only suffer from increased corrosion due to bimetallic effects. For example, in the wire on bolt test the wire tension may influence the outcome of the te
47、st depending on the particular application. Therefore, several types of specimens (test specimens, reference specimens, standard specimens and control specimens) as defined in Clause 3 are needed depending on the purpose of the test programme.NOTE Comparison of effects of test and reference specimen
48、s gives the relative risk of bimetallic corrosion but reference specimens are generally not suitable for evaluation of the absolute corrosion attack when there is no risk of bimetallic corrosion due to the particular design of the specimens. For evaluation of the absolute attack standard specimens a
49、re more suitable. Flat or irregularly shaped specimens can be used, as described in ISO 8565, depending on the intended use of the tested material. For example, hanging wires can be used as standard specimens for the wire on bolt test but flat panels can also be used if they are easily obtained and more closely resembles the shape of the intended use.Control specimens shall be used if evaluation of mechanical properties is part of the test programme.Unless otherwise stated, the material, dimensions, direction of cutting, m
