IS0 14284 Steel and iron - Sampling and preparation of samples for the determination of chemical composition 3 Principle Samples for oxygen determination are machined to a suitable shape and size within the restrictions imposed by the instrument used. In order to ensure that the surface has the
18、 minimum possible oxygen content, samples for analysis are prepared either by punching (method A) or by turning (method B). 4 4.1 4.2 5 5.1 5.1.1 5.1.2 5.1.3 5.2 5.2.1 Reagents Organic oxygen free hydro carbon solvent e.g. n-hexane; (boiling-point range: 68 OC to 69 OC) Argon or nitrogen Apparatus M
19、ethods A and 6 Mechanical steel saw Tweezers Receptacles for storing the test samples e.g. glass tubes about 2,5 cm long and about 1 cm in diameter with stopperskaps. Method A: Punch: suitable for punching out samples in the manner described in 7.1.4. Purging by argon or nitrogen ensures minimum pos
20、sible contact of the samples with atmospheric oxygen. This is illustrated in figure 1. 5.2.2 5.2.3 5.3 Method B: 5.3.1 5.3.2 Flat bed linisher for linishing the steel sample. Electrical hand drill and rotary file, with rotation speed exceeding 30 O00 rev/min. Lathe for turning steel samples at speed
21、s of 250 rev/min to 1 200 rev/min. Hand saw: the saw blade shall be free from grease or paint. Page 4 EN 10276-1 : 2000 5.3.3 Filing block made of stainless steel which holds the samples firm during filing of the end-faces (figure 2). 5.3.4 Hand files: cut no. 4. 5.3.5 Metal wire brush with strong b
22、ristles about 2 cm long. 6 Sampling Sampling for preparation of the analytical samples shall proceed in accordance with IS0 14284. The distribution of oxygen within the product is dependent on the manufacturing process. The result of the oxygen determination will therefore depend on the sample posit
23、ion. This has to be agreed if it is not specified in the product standard. 7 7.1 7.1.1 7.1.2 7.1.3 7.1.4 7.1.5 7.2 7.2.1 Sample preparation Method A Punching Saw off slices 3 mm to 4 mm thick from the sample piece using a mechanical saw (5.1.1). The number shall be as required by the method. NOTE: F
24、igures 3 and 4 give examples of the different procedures for different sample shapes. Use a flat bed linisher (5.2.2) with 60 grade silicon carbide paper so that the sample slices are ground flat on both sides removing most of the oxide layer. Hold the sample with a magnetic holding device during gr
25、inding. Remove thoroughly any oxides remaining on the surface with a rotary file under a flow of argon or nitrogen (5.2.3). The condition of the surface after preparation shall be smooth, bright and free from burrs and irregularities. Avoid significant heating of the sample in order to prevent oxida
26、tion of the surface after removal from inert atmosphere. After treatment, handle the samples with tweezers only. Do not touch the samples by hand. NOTE: During milling and all subsequent preparations, take care to ensure that the tools and objects coming into contact with the sample are free from ox
27、ygen containing contaminants. The test samples should usually have a mass of approximately 1 g. The mass of the sample depends on the method of oxygen determination. Prepare the samples with a punch (52.1). A punch of 4 to 6 mm diameter is normally suitable for this purpose. During the punching oper
28、ation purge the receptacle into which the sample is collected, with argon or nitrogen (4.2) (figure 1) Keep the test samples in a glass receptacle (5.1.3). Samples should be analysed as soon as possible on the same day as preparation. Immediately before analysis, wash the test samples in organic sol
29、vent (4.1) and dry them in air or under vacuum free from backgassing. NOTE: Problems with microcracks have been encountered in the determination of low levels of carbon ( l0ppm). There may be similar contamination problems in the determination of oxygen. Method B Turning Take rectangular pieces abou
30、t 100 mm long with a cross section of about 10 mm x 10 mm from the sample piece with a mechanical saw. Figures 3 and 4 give examples of the various procedures for different shapes of samples. If rods, wire or forged pieces of about 10 mm diameter are available, it is only necessary to cut off one pi
31、ece about 100 mm in length. Page 5 EN 10276-1 : 2000 7.2.2 The test samples should usually have a mass of approximately 1 g. The mass of the sample depends on the method of oxygen determination. Prepare these samples by turning the pieces on a lathe (5.3.1). For this purpose, turn down the sample ob
32、tained in accordance with 7.2.1, to about 7 mm diameter at a speed of about 1 O00 rev/min. Subsequent turning down to 6 mm diameter shall be at a speed of 250 rev/rnin with a feed of about 0,2 mm/rev. After turning, file the surface with a fine file (5.3.4) with the lathe still running until the sam
33、ple is smooth and bright. Avoid significant heating of the sample in order to prevent oxidation of the surface. As an altemative to slow-speed turning, reduce the diameter from 7 mm to 6 mm using a speed of between 800 rev/min to 1 O00 rev/min and a feed of between 0,l-0,15 mm/rev. In this case, the
34、 cylindrical surface is smooth enough to dispense with the filing operation. NOTE: Use no cooling lubricant during turning down from 7 mm to 6mm Take care also during the subsequent stages in preparation to ensure that any objects coming into contact with the sample are free from oxygen containing c
35、ontaminants. 7.2.3 Using the hand saw (5.3.2), saw off the end of the sample which is not used for analysis. Clean the accessible end face of the clamped sample by filing. Then, saw off a test sample 4 mm to 5 mm long for analysis. Handle the sample with tweezers only. Do not touch samples by hand.
36、Use the tweezers for all manipulations. File carefully the unfiled end face of the sample in a filing block (figure 2) or in another similar holding device. Remove carefully any adhering dust with a small brush (5.3.5). Keep the test samples in a glass receptacle (5.1.3). These shall be analysed as
37、soon as possible on the same day as they were prepared. Immediately before analysis, wash the samples in organic solvent (4.1) and dry them in air or under vacuum free from backgassing.
