Scope* 1.1 This specication covers several different types of chemical passivation treatments for stainless steel parts. It includes recommendations and precautions for descaling, cleaning, and

4、passivation of stainless steel parts. It includes several alternative tests, with acceptance criteria, for conrmation of effectiveness of such treatments for stainless steel parts. 1.2 Practices for the mechanical and chemical treatments of stainless steel surfaces are discussed more thoroughly in P

5、ractice A380. 1.3 Several alternative chemical treatments are dened for passivation of stainless steel parts. Appendix X1 gives some nonmandatory information and provides some general guidelines regarding the selection of passivation treatment appropriate to particular grades of stainless steel. It

6、makes no recommendations regarding the suitability of any grade, treatment, or acceptance criteria for any particular application or class of applications. 1.4 Thetestsinthisspecicationareintendedtoconrmtheeffectivenessofpassivation,particularlywithregardtotheremoval of free iron and other exogenous

United States 12.2 Federal Specication: 3 QQ-P-35CPassivation Treatments for Corrosion-Resistant Steels 3. Terminology 3.1 Denition of Term

17、 Specic to This StandardIt is necessary to dene which of the several commonly used denitions of the term passivation will be used in this specication. (See Discussion.) 3.1.1 DiscussionStainless steels are autopassivating in the sense that the protective passive lm is formed spontaneously on exposur

18、e to air or moisture. The presence of exogenous surface contamination, including dirt, grease, free iron from contact with steel tooling, and so forth, may interfere with the formation of the passive lm. The cleaning of these contaminants from the stainlesssteelsurfacewillfacilitatethespontaneouspas

19、sivationbyallowingtheoxygenuniformaccesstothesurface.Thepassive lm may be augmented by chemical treatments that provide an oxidizing environment for the stainless steel surface. 3.1.1.1 Inthisspecication,passivation,unlessotherwisespecied,isdenedasthechemicaltreatmentofastainlesssteelwith a mild oxi

21、 include the removal of suldes from the surface of the metal for the purpose of maximizing corrosion resistance. 3.1.1.2 The formation of the protective passive lm on a stainless steel, also called passivation in a more general context, will occur spontaneously in air or other oxygen-containing envi

22、ronment when the stainless steel surface is free of oxide scale and exogenous matter. 3.1.1.3 Chemical treatments, such as sodium dichromate solutions, may facilitate the more rapid formation of the passive lm on a stainless steel surface already free of scale or foreign matter. Such treatments, als

23、o sometimes called passivation in common usage, are designated as post-cleaning treatments in this specication in order to distinguish them from chemical treatments capable of removing free iron from stainless steels. 3.1.1.4 The chemical treatments capable of removing heat tint or oxide scale from

24、stainless steel and capable of dissolving the stainless steel itself, typically called pickling, are substantially more aggressive than treatments used for passivation, as dened in 3.1.1.1. The surface of stainless steel that has been pickled is free of scale, free iron, and exogenous foreign matter

25、, and does not require a separate treatment for passivation as dened in 3.1.1.1. The passivation process dened in 3.1.1.2 will occur without further chemical treatment but may be augmented and improved by the post-cleaning treatments dened in 3.1.1.3. 3.1.1.5 Electrochemical treatments, including el

26、ectropickling and electropolishing capable of removing heat tint or oxide scale from stainless steel and capable of dissolving the stainless steel itself, are substantially more aggressive than treatments used for passivation, as dened in 3.1.1.1. The surface of stainless steel resulting from these

27、treatments is free of scale, free iron, and exogenous foreign matter, and does not require a separate treatment for passivation as dened in 3.1.1.1. The passivation process dened in 3.1.1.2 will occur without further chemical treatment, but may be augmented and improved by the post-cleaning treatmen

28、ts dened in 3.1.1.3. Statements regarding chemical treatments, unless otherwise specied, are taken to include electrochemical treatments. 4.
