16、ed States14. Summary of Test Method4.1 A known direct current is passed through test cells connected in series. Each test cell consists of a pre-weighed testmagnesium alloy anode specimen, a steel pot container cathode, and a known electrolyte. Test specimen oxidation potential ismeasured several ti

17、mes during the 14-day test and 1 h after the current is turned off at the end of the test. The total Ah passedthrough the cells are measured.At the conclusion of the test, each test specimen is cleaned and weighed. TheAh obtained per unitmass of specimen lost is calculated.5. Significance and Use5.1

18、 This test is a guide for evaluating magnesium anodes. The degree of correlation between this test and service performancehas not been fully determined.5.2 Test specimens from the same casting may not be identical because of inhomogeneities in the casting.Amethod of ensuringthat identical test speci

19、mens are being evaluated is to retest a test specimen. The surface of the test specimen should be smoothedby machining before retesting. The new diameter should be measured and the test current adjusted so that the retest current densityis 0.039 mA/cm2 (0.25 mA/in.2).5.3 The values of potential and

20、Ah per unit mass consumed as measured by this test method, may not agree with those foundin field applications. It is unlikely that field results of Ah per unit mass consumed would ever be greater than those measured inthis test. However, actual test comparisons are not sufficient to allow precise c

Test specimens are obtained across the width of a cast anode and approximately13 mm (0.51 in.) from the edge. Machine each test specimen from a sawed, 180-mm long, 16-mm 180 mm (7.1 in.)

27、 long, 16 mm(0.63 in.) square cross section portion of the cast anode. Dry machine the square cross section, which should be marked with astamped identification number, down to 12.7-mm 12.7 mm (0.50 in.) diameter using a machining speed of 800 r/min, a feed rateof 0.5 mm (0.02 in.) per revolution, a
