23、y with test specimens (seeSection 7) to be electroplated for conformance tests as re-quested for preparation, control, inspection, and lot acceptanceunless other arrangements have been made between the pur-chaser and the electroplating facility.6. Coating Requirements6.1 The appearance of the chromi

24、um coating on the signifi-cant surfaces of the product shall be smooth and free of visualdefects such as blisters, pits, roughness, cracks, burned depos-its, uncoated areas, or macrocracking of the deposit that isvisible without magnification. The boundaries of electroplatingthat cover only a portio

25、n of the surface shall, after finishing asindicated on the drawing, be free of beads, nodules, jaggededges, or other irregularities that will interfere with thefunctioning of the plated part. Imperfections and variations thatarise from surface conditions of the basis metal (scratches,pores, roll mar

26、ks, inclusions, etc.) and that persist in the finishdespite the observance of good metal finishing practices shallnot be cause for rejection.NOTE 1Applied finishes generally perform better in service when thesubstrate over which they are applied is smooth and free of torn metal,inclusions, pores, an

27、d other defects. It is recommended that the specifi-cations covering the unfinished product provide limits for these defects. Ametal finisher can often remove defects through special treatments such asgrinding, polishing, abrasive blasting, chemical treatments, and elec-tropolishing, which are not n

28、ormal in the treatment steps preceding theapplication of the finish and will add to the cost. When they are desired,they are the subject of a special agreement between the purchaser and theseller.6.2 In cases where design for maximum fatigue life is aconsideration the parts should be shot peened (se

29、e MIL-S-13165C) or given an alternate mechanical treatment to com-pressively stress the surface.6.3 Stress Relief Treatment (See headnote at the beginningof this specification.):6.3.1 All steel parts having an ultimate tensile strength of1000 MPa (150 000 psiapproximately 32 HRC) or greater,that may

30、 contain residual stress caused by various fabricationoperations such as machining, grinding, straightening, or coldforming, will require one of the stress relief heat treatmentsprescribed in Specification B 849 prior to electroplating. In allcases, the duration of heat treatment shall commence from

31、 thetime at which the whole of each part attains the specifiedtemperature.6.3.1.1 The treatment selected, of necessity, must be basedupon experience with the part or empirical test data. Therefore,Class SR-0 treatment is provided for parts that the purchaserwishes to exempt from treatment. However,

32、many, if not most,steels with a tensile strength in excess of 1000 MPa willbecome embrittled when plated with chromium. The stressrelief and hydrogen embrittlement relief treatments are essen-tial for the safe performance of chromium plated itemsfabricated from those steels. Selection of Class SR-0

33、or ER-0requires thorough knowledge of the embrittlement susceptibil-ity of the specific steel employed. When the purchaser specifiesClass SR-0 or ER-0, the purchaser assumes sole responsibilityfor any embrittlement failure of the part. The relative suscep-tibility of a steel can be determined by sub

34、jecting it to the DiskRupture Test of Test Method F 1459. When no stress relieftreatment is specified by the purchaser then Class SR-1 shall beapplied.6.3.2 Parts having surface hardened areas that would sufferan unacceptable reduction in hardness by treatment in accor-dance with Specification B 849

35、 shall be heat-treated at a lowerB 6502temperature but not less than 130C for a minimum period of8 h. This treatment is applicable for parts made of steel with anactual tensile strength below 1400 MPa. The purchaser mayrequire that the heat-treatment temperature shall not reduce thesurface hardness.

36、 Shorter times at higher temperatures may beused, if the resulting loss of surface hardness is acceptable.6.3.3 If stress relief is given after shot peening or other coldworking processes to introduce beneficial compressivestresses, the temperature shall not exceed 230C.6.4 Hydrogen Embrittlement Re

37、lief:6.4.1 Heat treatment appropriate for the tensile strength ofthe electroplated part (see Specification B 850) shall be per-formed to reduce the risk of hydrogen embrittlement. In allcases, the duration of the heat treatment shall commence fromthe time at which the whole part attains the specifie

38、d tempera-ture. See 6.3.1.1 for important embrittlement relief informationregarding the selection of ER-0. When no embrittlement relieftreatment is specified by the purchaser then Class ER-1 shall beapplied.6.4.2 Begin the embrittlement relief heat-treatment as soonas practical following the plating

39、 process but no longer than 1.5h.6.4.3 Parts or representative specimens shall be tested forcompliance in accordance with 7.5.6.5 ThicknessThe thickness of the coating everywhere onthe significant surface(s) shall conform to the requirements ofthe specified class as defined in Section 3 (see 7.2).NO

40、TE 2The coating thickness requirements of this specification are aminimum requirement, that is, the coating thickness is required to equal orexceed the specified thickness everywhere on the significant surfaces (see4.1). Variation in the coating thickness from point to point on a coatedarticle is an

41、 inherent characteristic of electroplating processes. Therefore,the coating thickness must exceed the specified value at some point on thesignificant surfaces to ensure that the thickness equals or exceeds thespecified value at all points. Hence, in most cases, the average coatingthickness on an art

42、icle will be greater than the specified value; how muchgreater is largely determined by the shape of the article (see PracticeB 507) and the characteristics of the electroplating process. In addition,the average coating thickness on articles will vary from article to articlewithin a production lot.

43、Therefore, if all of the articles within a productionlot are to meet the thickness requirement, the average coating thickness forthe production lot as a whole will be greater than the average necessary toensure that a single article meets the requirement. This may not apply toparts that are ground a

44、fter plating.6.6 AdhesionThe coating shall be sufficiently adherent tothe basis metal to pass the adhesion test specified (see 7.3).These tests are, with the possible exception of the heat quenchtest, all destructive and therefore, in most cases, should beperformed on test panels.NOTE 3Adhesion may

45、be influenced by the method of pretreating thebase metal and the type of steel used as a basis metal. Helpful informationis given in Practices B 177, B 183, B 242, and B 320.6.7 The coating shall be sufficiently free of pores to pass theporosity test specified (see 7.4).6.8 WorkmanshipAdding to (spo

46、tting in) or double elec-troplating, unless evidence of a satisfactory bond is established,shall be cause for rejection. Stripping and replating is permittedbut parts having an ultimate tensile strength greater than 1000MPa or a hardness greater than 32 HRC that are acid strippedshall be rebaked (se

47、e 6.3) before plating. Baking after strippingis not necessary if the parts are stripped anodically in analkaline solution.6.9 Supplemental RequirementsIf parts are electroplatedand subsequently ground to size, the grinding shall be donewith a proper coolant, never dry, and with a sufficiently lightc

48、ut to prevent cracking.8Macrocracking, visually observedwithout magnification after grinding, shall be cause for rejec-tion.6.10 PackagingPart(s) plated for the U.S. Governmentand Military, including subcontracts, shall be packaged inaccordance with Practice D 3951.7. Test Methods7.1 Separate Specim

49、ensWhen the coated articles are ofsuch a form as not to be readily adaptable to a test specifiedherein, when destructive tests would unreasonably reduce thenumber or pieces in small lots, when the pieces are toovaluable to be destroyed, and when specified by the purchaser,tests shall be made by the use of separate specimens platedconcurrently with the articles represented. The separate speci-mens shall be of a basis metal equivalent to that of the articlesrepresented. Equivalent basis metal includes chemical compo-sition, grade, condition, and finish of surface prior to
