1、Designation: B 276 05e1Standard Test Method forApparent Porosity in Cemented Carbides1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 276; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in

2、 parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.e1NOTECorrected adjunct information in November 2006.1. Scope*1.1 This tes

3、t method specifies procedures for the metallo-graphic determination of apparent porosity in cemented car-bides.NOTE 1The term “apparent porosity” is construed to mean allmicrostructures observed on a properly prepared, unetched surface,including structures resulting from uncombined carbon, non-metal

4、licinclusions, etc., as well as true, inherent porosity.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bilit

6、1 DefinitionsDefinition of powder metallurgy terms canbe found in Terminology B 243.4. Significance and Use4.1 Cemented carbide materials may contain small voidsthat, depending on the application, may affect the performanceof the product. To assist users in specifying the maximumacceptable level of

7、porosity, this test method illustrates a broadrange of porosity levels for each of three porosity types. Thistest method is not intended to be used as a specification, but thelevels shown here may be cited in specifications written byproducers and users of cemented carbides.5. Interferences5.1 Lack

8、of adequate pressure on the specimen duringpolishing may result in material being torn from the surface ofthe specimen. This condition may be erroneously interpreted asporosity.6. Apparatus6.1 A metallographic microscope permitting observationand measurement up to a magnification of 2003.6.2 Equipme

9、nt for the metallographic preparation of testspecimens.7. Specimen Preparation7.1 Where possible, specimens should be metallographi-cally mounted in a plastic material, so that they can be polishedwithout rounding the edges. Larger specimens may be polishedwithout mounting. When the specimens are to

10、o large, theyshall be sectioned using a diamond cut-off wheel or byfracturing (appropriate safety precautions shall be utilizedwhen fracturing a specimen). The area selected for examina-tion should represent, as nearly as possible, the entire crosssection.7.2 The specimen shall be prepared for metal

11、lographicexamination. A suitable procedure is described in PracticeB 665.The surface to be examined shall be unetched and free ofgrinding and polishing marks.8. Procedure8.1 Pore size shall be defined as the maximum dimension ofthe pore. Make special reference to the presence of cracks andslits, as

12、well as nonmetallic inclusions.8.2 Classification of Type “A” and “C” apparent porosity isbased entirely on comparison of the microstructures found withthe illustrations in Figs. 1, 3 and 4 of ADJB0276A3with due1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B09 on MetalPowders and Met

This can beaccomplished by scanning the specim

16、en surface under themicroscope at the appropriate magnification, and noting whichof the illustrations most nearly represents the fields observed.Choose an area fully representative of the specimen surface forcomparison with the illustrations.NOTE 2The illustrations in Figs. 14 of ADJB0276A represent

17、 only aportion of the field of view typically observed in modern microscopes.Typically, the field of view of a microscope is 6.53 larger than the areain these figures. The exact relationship between the area observed at anygiven magnification in the microscope and the area of the illustrations canbe

18、 determined using the method in Annex A1.8.2.1 Classify pores #10 m as Type A (see Fig. 1 ofADJB0276A), and examine at a magnification of 2003. Reportthe porosity level by reference to the appropriate illustrationwith consideration to the relationship of area between theillustration and that observe

19、d in the microscope, and designateas A02, A04, A06, or A08. If the level of Type A pores is lessthan 50 % of that shown in the illustration for A02, thendesignate this as A00. If the porosity is not uniform over thearea of the test-piece section being examined, identify thelocation of the section, f

20、or example, as top, bottom, edge, rim(case), core, and so forth.8.2.2 Classify pores in the range from 10 to #25 m asType B (see Fig. 2 of ADJB0276A), and examine at amagnification of 1003.8.2.2.1 If the number of “B” pores appears to be less thanor equal to that represented by B02, with considerati

21、on to therelationship of area between the illustrations in Fig. 2 ofADJB0276A and that observed in the microscope (see A1.3),count the number of “B” pores in a representative area ($0.25cm2). Divide this count by the area examined (see A1.3)toobtain the number of “B” pores/cm2. If this number is les

22、s than70 pores/cm2, designate this as B00-#, where # is the numberof “B” pores/cm2so obtained. If the number is greater than orequal to 70 pores/cm2, designate this as B02. If no “B” poresare observed, designate this as B00-0.8.2.2.2 If the number of “B” pores appears to be greater thanthat represen

23、ted by B02, with consideration to the relationshipof area between the illustrations in Fig. 2 of ADJB0276A, andthat observed in the microscope (see A1.4), classify the “B”porosity as B04, B06, or B08 with reference to the illustrationsin Fig. 2 ofADJB0276A. If the porosity is not uniform over theare

24、a of the test-piece section being examined, identify thelocation of the section, for example, as top, bottom, edge, rim(case), core, and so forth.8.2.3 Count and report pores larger than 25 m as thenumber of pores per cm2. Choose the size ranges as follows:25 to #75 m, 75 to #125 m, and over 125 m.8

25、.2.4 Classify porosity resulting from uncombined carbonas Type C (see Figs. 3 and 4 of ADJB0276A), and examine ata magnification of 100 or 2003. Report the porosity level byreference to the appropriate illustration with consideration tothe relationship of area between the illustrations in Figs. 3 an

If the porosity ofuncombined carbon is not uniform over the area of thetest-piece section being examined, identify the location of thesection, for example as top, bottom, edge, rim (case), core, andso forth.

31、rd since the last issue, B 276 91(2000), that may impact the use of this standard. (Approved Dec. 1, 2005.)(1) Removed 6.1, ordinary laboratory apparatus.(2) Removed Note 2 and placed this sentence in 7.2.(3) Modified 8.2 to specify that porosity type A and C areclassified by comparison to ADJB0276A

32、, while consideringthe relationship of the area of the illustration to the field ofview of the microscope. The term photomicrographs andfigures have been replaced by the term illustrations.(3) The illustrations that were attached to this test methodhave been removed, as well as all reference to them

33、. Porositycan only be evaluated with reference to the illustrations inADJB0276A, and all sections of this test method have been sorevised.All ratings must consider the relationship of the area ofthe illustrations in ADJB0276A to that of the field of view ofthe microscope used.(4) The size range of p
