1、Designation: C1322 05b (Reapproved 2010)Standard Practice forFractography and Characterization of Fracture Origins inAdvanced Ceramics1This standard is issued under the fixed designation C1322; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of

2、 revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 The objective of this practice is to provide an efficientand consistent methodology to locate a

3、nd characterize fractureorigins in advanced ceramics. It is applicable to advancedceramics which are brittle; that is, the material adheres toHookes Law up to fracture. In such materials, fracturecommences from a single location which is termed the fractureorigin. The fracture origin in brittle cera

4、mics normally consistsof some irregularity or singularity in the material which acts asa stress concentrator. In the parlance of the engineer orscientist, these irregularities are termed flaws or defects. Thelatter should not be construed to mean that the material hasbeen prepared improperly or is s

5、omehow faulty.1.2 Although this practice is primarily intended for labora-tory test piece analysis, the general concepts and proceduresmay be applied to component failure analyses as well. In manycases, component failure analysis may be aided by cuttinglaboratory test pieces out of the component. In

6、formationgleaned from testing the laboratory pieces (for example, flawtypes, general fracture features, fracture mirror constants) maythen aid interpretation of component fractures. For moreinformation on component fracture analysis, see Ref (1).21.3 This practice supersedes Military Handbook 790.1.

7、4 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-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2. Referenced Doc

Examples of additionalterms are hard agglomerate, collapsed agglomerate, poorlybonded region, glassy inclusion, chip, or closed chip.3.28 The word “surface” may have multiple meanings. Inthe definitions above, it refers to the intrinsic spatial distribu-tion of flaws

It is recommended that the terms original-surfaceor as-processed surface be used if appropriate.4. Summary of Pract

32、ice4.1 Prior to testing mark the specimen or component orien-tation and location to aid in reconstruction of the specimen/component fragments. Marker lines made with a pencil or felttip marker may suffice.4.2 Whenever possible, test the specimen(s)/component(s)to failure in a fashion that preserves

33、the primary fracturesurface(s) and all associated fragments for further fracto-graphic analysis.4.3 Carefully handle and store the specimen(s)/component(s) to minimize additional damage or contaminationof the fracture surface(s), or both.4.4 Visually inspect the fractured specimen(s)/component(s)(1

34、to 103) in order to determine crack branching patterns, anyevidence of abnormal failure patterns (indicative of testingmisalignments), the primary fracture surfaces, the location ofthe mirror and, if possible, the fracture origin. Specimen/component reconstruction may be helpful in this step. Labelt

Repeat the5The American Ceramic Society, Westervill

If the fracture origin cannotbe characterized, then conduct the optical examination with thepurpose of expediting subsequent examination with the scan-ning electron microscope (SEM).4.6 Inspect the external surfaces of the specimen(s)/co

When appropriate, use the chemical analysiscapability of the SEM to help characterize the origin.4.10 If necessary, repeat 4.6 using the SEM.4.11 Keep appropriate records, digital i

If these sizes are not in general agr

41、s grain sizeand porosity.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice is suitable for monolithic and some com-posite ceramics, for example, particulate- and whisker-reinforced and continuous-grain-boundary phase ceramics.(Long- or continuous-fiber reinforced ceramics are excluded.)For some materials, th

42、e location and identification of fractureorigins may not be possible due to the specific microstructure.5.2 This practice is principally oriented towards character-ization of fracture origins in specimens loaded in so-called fastfracture testing, but the approach can be extended to includeother mode

43、s of loading as well.5.3 The procedures described within are primarily appli-cable to mechanical test specimens, although the same proce-dures may be relevant to component failure analyses as well. Itis customary practice to test a number of specimens (consti-tuting a sample) to permit statistical a

44、nalysis of the variabilityof the materials strength. It is usually not difficult to test thespecimens in a manner that will facilitate subsequent fracto-graphic analysis. This may not be the case with componentfailure analyses. Component failure analysis is sometimesaided by cutting test pieces from

45、 the component and fracturingthe test pieces. Fracture markings and fracture origins from thelatter may aid component interpretation.5.4 Optimum fractographic analysis requires examination ofas many similar specimens or components as possible. Thiswill enhance the chances of successful interpretatio

46、ns. Exami-nation of only one or a few specimens can be misleading. Ofcourse, in some instances the fractographer may have access toonly one or a few fractured specimens or components.5.5 Successful and complete fractography also requirescareful consideration of all ancillary information that may bea

47、vailable, such as microstructural characteristics, materialfabrication, properties and service histories, component orspecimen machining, or preparation techniques.5.6 Fractographic inspection and analysis can be a time-consuming process. Experience will in general enhance theNOTEKeep appropriate re

49、e and patience. Repeat examina-tions are often fruitful. For example, a particular origin type orkey feature may be overlooked in the first few test pieces of asample set.As the fractographer gains experience by looking atmultiple examples, he or she may begin to appreciate some keyfeature that was initially overlooked.5.7 This practice is applicable to quality control, materialsresearch and development, and design. It will also serve as abridge between mechanical testing standards and statisticalanalysis practices to permit comprehensive interpretat
