42、not part of ANSI/AWS A4.3-93 (R2006), Standard Methods for Determinationof the Diffusible Hydrogen Content of Martensitic, Bainitic, and Ferritic Steel Weld MetalProduced by Arc Welding, but is included for informational purposes only.This document (A4.3-93) refers to an IIW draft standard for measu

43、rement of diffusible hydrogen in several places,including the foreword and the appendix. This referenced IIW draft became the basis for ISO 3690:2000.A number of test methods for determining weld metal diffusible hydrogen have been used over the years. Inparticular, media for collecting hydrogen hav

44、e included glycerin, paraffin, and mercury, with glycerin being by far themost popular in the United States. A previous AWS A5 Task Group, chaired by R. A. LaFave, investigated thecollection of hydrogen over glycerin in 19821983. That Task Group concluded that, whereas collection of hydrogenover gly

45、cerin is simple and inexpensive, the results suffer from severe variability. This is due in part to the solubility ofwater, atmospheric gases, and hydrogen in glycerin.Collection of hydrogen over glycerin, when using very low hydrogen weld metals, has also been shown to give nullreadings, while coll

46、ection over mercury using the method of ISO 3690 was giving readings greater than zero. Themethod of ISO 3690 is only suitable for coated electrodes. Recognizing this, the International Institute of Welding (IIW)has been developing a draft standard with a larger specimen size suitable for other weld

47、ing processes but still usingcollection of hydrogen over mercury as the reference method. This draft has also introduced analysis by gaschromatography as giving results equal to those of collection over mercury.The AWS A5 Task Group, in 1983 and 1984, chaired by D. J. Kotecki, considered adopting th

48、e method of the IIWdraft standard. However, after round robin testing employing the IIW specimen size and other sizes, the Task Grouprejected the IIW specimen size for two reasons. First, the small size required reorientation of the test specimendepending upon welding heat input. Second, the small s

49、ize resulted in hydrogen volumes almost too small to measurewhen very low hydrogen weld metals were tested. As a result, the Task Group selected a specimen size appropriate togenerating a significant volume of hydrogen gas for measurement and not requiring specimen reorientation for weldingheat input within the realm of electrode classifications envisioned for use with this standard.This is the first revision of this specification as shown below:ANSI/AWS A4.3-86, Standard Methods for Determination of the Diffusible Hydrogen Content of Martensitic, Bainitic,and Ferritic Steel Weld M
