Summary of Test Method4.1 A test specimen is statically positioned in the magneticfield generated by d
6、-c coils or a permanent magnet and sensingcoils of the test apparatus. The specimen is magnetized toinduction saturation by the field and translated linearly that theintrinsic magnetic moment of the specimens binder phaseinduces a d-c current to flow in the sensing coils of the testapparatus. The in
7、duced currect is proportional to the amount ofmagenetic binder phase present in the test specimen. Measure-ment of the induced current permits calculation of the intrinsicmagnetic saturation of the test sample.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method allows the non-destructive measure-ment of the
8、 magnetic fraction of the binder phase in cementedcarbide powder materials and sintered product, and may beused as an indirect measure of the carbon level in the materialor product.5.2 Measurement of magnetic saturation provides a com-parison of the relative fraction of magnetic binder phase that is
9、,cobalt, nickel, or iron, present in the material and can be usedfor acceptance of product to specification.5.3 Measurement of magnetic saturation can be used as ameasure of the quality of powder material.6. Interferences6.1 No direct absolute measurement of magnetic saturationcan be made. The measu
10、rement is a relative comparison ofstandard reference materials.6.2 Measurement of magnetic saturation is a non-destructive “bulk” measurement which is averaged over thetest specimen volume. The technique cannot be used to inferanything regarding the relative distribution of the binder phasewithin th
11、e test sample.6.3 Measurement of magnetic saturation is affected by testsample size and shape, especially aspect ratio, and the compo-sition of the binder phase, that is, a mixture of ferromagneticelements of varying intrinsic magnetic moments6.4 Small test samples or test samples containing relativ

Keywords13.1 cemented carbide; magnetic saturation (Ms)SUMMARY OF CHANGESCommittee B09 has identified the location of selected changes to this standard since the last issue (B 886 98) that
26、may impact the use of this standard.(1) The use of a permanent magnet to induce saturation wasadded.(2) The word “or” was added in Section 5.2. It has beendetermined that mixtures of nickel, cobalt, and iron in sinteredcarbides will produces alloys of various amounts whoseintrinsic magnet moment is
27、different than the sum of theindividual binder materials.(3) The units were changed to SI units as the standard unit inSections 10.6 and 11.(4) The reference to vanadium affecting the magnetic momentof the binder material was removed, because vanadium doesnot affect magnetic saturation determination
