11、ement D-Liquid Penetrant, Qualification and Certification ofPersonnel. American Society for Nondestructive Testing, Columbus, OH 432213. GeneralLiquid penetrant testing is a nondestructive inspection method suitable for the detection of verysmall discontinuities that are open to the surface of nonpo

12、rous objects. It is generally used on materials suchas metals, plastics, and ceramics. However, the magnetic particle method is generally preferred forferromagnetic materials. Specific applications include detection of cold shuts, seams, shrinkage, porosity,cracks, and other imperfections which are

13、open to the surface.4. PrincipleThe liquid penetrant test method is based upon capillary action, using low surface tension liquids.The liquid penetrant is applied to the surface to be inspected by dipping, spraying, or brushing. The excesspenetrant is removed and a developer is applied. The bleeding

14、 out of penetrant from the discontinuity into thedeveloper yields indications which can be observed and evaluated. This is done under ultraviolet or white light,depending upon the type of liquid penetrant used - fluorescent or nonfluorescent (visible).5. Procedurea. Clean parts by washing, degreasin

15、g, or etching. (Paint or other surface coatings must first beremoved.)b. Apply penetrant to the surface to be inspected.c. Allow adequate time for penetration.d. Remove excess penetrant from the surface.e. Dry the surface to be inspected. (Perform after the next step if a wet developer is used.)NOTE

16、Excessive part temperatures can degrade penetrants.f. Apply a developer when applicable. The developer is a material which acts like a blotter and drawspenetrant from the defect. Dry or wet (aqueous or nonaqueous) developers are used.g. Locate imperfections by observing penetrant bleed-out from the

17、discontinuity.h. Post clean parts. Remove residual penetrant and developer.6. CharacteristicsPenetrants are classified into two types. One type of penetrant employs fluorescent dyes tomake surface imperfections visible under ultraviolet light. The other type of penetrant employs rednonfluorescent dy

18、es which are visible under white light.7. Method Of Penetrant RemovalThe penetrants are further classified according to the method of excesspenetrant removal:7.1 Method A: Water WashableThe penetrants contain an emulsifier which makes them water washable.7.2 Method B: Post EmulsifiedThese penetrants

19、 require that an emulsifier or remover (hydrophilic) be appliedover the penetrants to make them water washable. Hence, they are called post-emulsifiable penetrants orremover penetrants.7.3 Method C: Solvent RemovableThese penetrants are mechanically removed by hand wiping with a finalwipe with a sol

20、vent dampened cloth.SAE J426 Revised MAR91-3-8. Penetrant SelectionGenerally, there are several recognized sensitivity levels of penetrant performancerelating primarily to the width of discontinuity that must be detected. Selection of the appropriate penetrantsystem (type method and sensitivity leve

21、l) will be based on the following factors:a. Surface roughnessb. Surface treatmentc. Size of discontinuity to be disclosedd. Environmente. Production requiredf. Equipment availableg. Type of material to be inspectedh. Subsequent use of the parti. Disposal restrictionsj. Costk. OthersWhere minimal se

22、nsitivity with respect to size of discontinuities is needed, the color contrast or visible dyepenetrants are usually employed and any of the three methods of penetrant removal listed in Section 7 can beused.Fluorescent penetrants make discontinuities more discernible. Fluorescent penetrants may be s

23、elected for usewith method A, B, or C. Three principal factors affect performance: the amount and brilliance of fluorescentdye that is contained within the penetrant material and the ability of the penetrant to be retained in the surfacediscontinuities after surface excess is removed.Generally, Meth

24、od A or B is preferred to Method C.9. DevelopersOne of three types of developers is used to draw the penetrant from the discontinuities.9.1 Dry developer consists of a dry, light-colored, powdery material. Dry developer is applied to the surface of theparts after removal of the excess penetrant and

25、drying of the part. Dry developer is applied by immersing theparts in a tank containing powder, by brushing it on with a paintbrush (usually not a desirable technique), or byblowing the powder onto the surface of the part.9.2 Aqueous wet developer consists of powdered material suspended in water. Th

26、e use of the wet developerspermits rapid coverage of a large number of parts or of parts that have complicated shapes. After applicationof the wet developer, usually by dipping, the part is dried and then inspected for penetrant indications.9.3 Nonaqueous wet developer is a powder suspended in a sui

27、table solvent and sprayed onto the surface of thedry part. The solvent evaporates quickly, leaving a fine coating of developer on the surface of the part. Thenonaqueous wet developer produces very high sensitivity when inspecting parts with small, tight defects.Selection of the type of development m

28、ethod or material used for an application is important to theachievement of reliable inspections. The three types of developers vary widely in the degree of enhancementof indications. Nonaqueous wet developer, aqueous wet developer, or dry powder may be preferred dependingupon the application. Surfa

29、ce finish may affect the degree of enhancement of developers. An aqueousdeveloper, either soluble or particulate, should not generally be used with water-washable penetrants.SAE J426 Revised MAR91-4-10.
