26、 includes alloys.2 Normative referenceThe following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (incl
27、uding any amendments) applies.

28、 from corrosion test specimens3 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 7539-1 apply.4 PrincipleThe RUB test is a particularly severe test for assessing susceptibility to stress corrosion cracking. The test is intended primarily for application
29、to metals with high corrosion resistance, such as Ni-based alloys, with the advantage compared to methods such as the conventional U-bend test of having significantly less stress relaxation. It is used primarily as a screening test for tubing, piping, plate, bar and other products including welded m
30、aterials. It may also be used as an acceptance test for performance in service subject to agreement between the parties.The principle of the test is to introduce very severe stresses in a high corrosion resistance metal, with minimum relaxation, in order to enhance the likelihood of inducing stress
31、corrosion cracking.The test consists of exposing to the corroding medium a piece of metal of semicircular section bent back on itself (i.e. reversed bent) into a U-shape and held in a manner which ensures that there are initial tensile stresses in excess of the yield strength over a large proportion
32、 of the inner surface. The test is accelerated by the presence of complex bi-axial stresses that may or may not exist in service. In the act of forming specimens, varying amounts of cold work may be introduced and this deformation may influence the stress corrosion cracking tendency as compared to t
33、hat of the material in the original condition.The test is normally performed in the laboratory by exposing the specimens to simulated service conditions.DIN EN ISO 7539-10:2015-03 EN ISO 7539-10:2014 (E) 4A further objective of the test is to compare and evaluate the influence of different material
34、parameters.The principal advantages of the test are its simplicity and its ability to provide rapid screening: if conventional U-bend or C-ring specimens are used for screening tests in high temperature solution as 573 K or higher, marked stress relaxation occurs and a long testing time is needed fo
35、r the evaluation. However, the stress relaxation in RUB specimens is smaller than that in conventional U-bend and C-ring specimens, due to the bi-axial stresses in RUB specimens. Therefore, screening tests can be done within a relatively short time through the use of RUB specimens.A disadvantage is
36、that the stress state is complicated and is difficult to quantify with accuracy. If an accurate stress state is desired an alternative method should be used.Wide variations in test results may be obtained for a given metal and environment even when testing nominally identical specimens and the repli
37、cation of tests is frequently necessary.If specimens are prepared from tubing of different dimensions or are subjected to different stressing procedures test results may be even more variable.5 Specimens5.1 GeneralRUB specimens are prepared from pieces of production tubing, piping, and other hollow
38、cylindrical products cut into half longitudinally or from plate, bar or other products formed into a semicircular shape along the axial direction. In this case, forming of the specimen should be followed by a heat treatment to relieve residual stresses before undertaking the reversed U-bending proce
39、ss.5.2 Tubing and pipingA variety of tube dimensions and specimen sizes can be employed. The tube is cut to selected specimen lengths and then sectioned axially to produce specimens with a semi-circular section.The tubing shall retain its original surface finish.During bending, deformation of the tu
40、be half may be constrained by the forming jig to force it to maintain its semicircular cross-section or its sides may be allowed to deform freely in which case it may tend to flatten at the apex. Both methods may be used. The latter procedure results in lower stresses, but has the advantage of avoid
41、ing cracking at the edges. The former type specimen is named as “Half tube RUB specimen”, and the latter type specimen is named as “RUB specimen with a gauge section”, in this standard.When testing RUB specimens with a gauge section (in which the stresses generated during reverse bending are lower b
42、ecause of reduced constraint), pre-straining can be used to achieve the desired stress level.Examples of preparation of half tube RUB specimens are shown in Annex A. Examples of preparation of non-pre-strained and pre-strained RUB specimens with a gauge section are shown in Annex B.Final heat treatm
43、ent shall be performed before bending (and pre-straining if this is adopted).Either single-stage or two-stage stressing may be performed. In single-stage stressing the specimen is not allowed to spring back after bending before final stressing. In two-stage stressing the specimen is allowed to sprin
44、g back after bending before final re-stressing.When stressing specimens with a loading bolt after forming, care should be taken to ensure that the deflection is restored beyond that pertaining at the end of the forming operation. The final distance between the specimen legs at the loading bolt shall
45、 be at least 1 mm less than that at the end of the forming operation. The final separation of the legs should be the same for all specimens in a given series; overloading should be avoided. To obtain consistency a micrometer measuring device should be used.DIN EN ISO 7539-10:2015-03EN ISO 7539-10:20
46、14 (E)5The bolting material should have a similar (or lower) coefficient of thermal expansion to that of the specimen. In addition, the use of double nuts to reduce the likelihood of loosening of the bolts is recommended.5.3 Other productsA variety of bar stock, plate and other forged or rolled mate
47、rial or welded material can be employed. These materials shall be machined into a plate after final heat treatment and pressed into a semicircular shape between inner and outer formers. Specimen preparation from a plate is shown in Annexes A and B.When testing welds, consideration shall be given to
48、the orientation of the weld relative to the longitudinal axis of the specimen and this shall be noted. Tests may be conducted on the weld metal itself or on sections containing the weld metal and heat- affected zone.Either single-stage or two-stage stressing may be performed. In single-stage stressing the specimen is not allowed to spring back after bending before final stressing. In two-stage stressing the specimen is allowed to spring back after bending before final re-stressing.When stressing sp
