Terminology3.1 The definitions relating to liquid penetrant examination,which appear in Terminology E 1316, shall apply to the termsused in this practice.4. Summary of Practice4.1 Liquid penetrant may consist of visible or fluorescentmaterial. T

20、he liquid penetrant is applied evenly over thesurface being examined and allowed to enter open discontinui-ties.After a suitable dwell time, the excess surface penetrant isremoved. A developer is applied to draw the entrapped pen-etrant out of the discontinuity and stain the developer. The testsurfa

21、ce is then examined to determine the presence or absenceof indications.NOTE 1The developer may be omitted by agreement between thecontracting parties.NOTE 2Fluorescent penetrant examination shall not follow a visiblepenetrant examination unless the procedure has been qualified in accor-dance with 10

22、.2, because visible dyes may cause deterioration orquenching of fluorescent dyes.4.2 Processing parameters, such as surface precleaning,penetrant dwell time and excess penetrant removal methods,are dependent on the specific materials used, the nature of thepart under examination, (that is, size, sha

23、pe, surface condition,alloy) and type of discontinuities expected.5. Significance and Use5.1 Liquid penetrant testing methods indicate the presence,location and, to a limited extent, the nature and magnitude ofthe detected discontinuities. Each of the various penetrantmethods has been designed for s

24、pecific uses such as criticalservice items, volume of parts, portability or localized areas ofexamination. The method selected will depend accordingly onthe design and service requirements of the parts or materialsbeing tested.6. Classification of Penetrant Materials and Methods6.1 Liquid penetrant

25、examination methods and types areclassified in accordance with MIL-I-25135 and AMS 2644 aslisted in Table 1.6.2 Fluorescent Penetrant Testing (Type 1)Fluorescentpenetrant testing utilizes penetrants that fluoresce brilliantlywhen excited by black light (UVA). The sensitivity of fluores-cent penetran

26、ts depends on their ability to be retained in thevarious size discontinuities during processing, and then tobleed out into the developer coating and produce indicationsthat will fluoresce. Fluorescent indications are many timesbrighter than their surroundings when viewed under appropri-ate black lig

27、ht illumination.6.3 Visible Penetrant Testing (Type 2)Visible penetranttesting uses a penetrant that can be seen in visible light. Thepenetrant is usually red, so that resultant indications produce adefinite contrast with the white background of the developer.Visible penetrant indications must be vi

28、ewed under adequatewhite light.7. Materials7.1 Liquid Penetrant Testing Materials consist of fluores-cent or visible penetrants, emulsifiers (oil-base and water-base), removers (water and solvent), and developers (drypowder, aqueous and nonaqueous).Afamily of liquid penetrantexamination materials co

29、nsists of the applicable penetrant andemulsifier, as recommended by the manufacturer. Any liquidpenetrant, remover and developer listed in QPL-25135/QPL-AMS2644 can be used, regardless of the manufacturer. Inter-mixing of penetrants and emulsifiers from different manufac-turers is prohibited.NOTE 3R

30、efer to 9.1 for special requirements for sulfur, halogen andalkali metal content.NOTE 4While approved penetrant materials will not adversely affectcommon metallic materials, some plastics or rubbers may be swollen orstained by certain penetrants.7.2 Penetrants:7.2.1 Post-Emulsifiable Penetrants are

31、insoluble in waterand cannot be removed with water rinsing alone. They areformulated to be selectively removed from the surface using aseparate emulsifier. Properly applied and given a properemulsification time, the emulsifier combines with the excesssurface penetrant to form a water-washable mixtur

Proper emulsification time must beexperimentally established and maintained to ensure

36、 thatover-emulsification does not result in loss of indications.7.2.2 Water-Washable Penetrants are formulated to be di-rectly water-washable from the surface of the test part, after asuitable penetrant dwell time. Because the emulsifier is “built-in,” water-washable penetrants can be washed out of

37、disconti-nuities if the rinsing step is too long or too vigorous. It istherefore extremely important to exercise proper control in theremoval of excess surface penetrant to ensure against over-washing. Some penetrants are less resistant to overwashingthan others, so caution should be exercised.7.2.3

38、 Solvent-Removable Penetrants are formulated so thatexcess surface penetrant can be removed by wiping until mostof the penetrant has been removed. The remaining tracesshould be removed with the solvent remover (see 8.6.4). Toprevent removal of penetrant from discontinuities, care shouldbe taken to a

39、void the use of excess solvent. Flushing thesurface with solvent to remove the excess penetrant is prohib-ited as the penetrant indications could easily be washed away.7.3 Emulsifiers:7.3.1 Lipophilic Emulsifiers are oil-miscible liquids used toemulsify the post-emulsified penetrant on the surface o

40、f thepart, rendering it water-washable. The individual characteris-tics of the emulsifier and penetrant, and the geometry/surfaceroughness of the part material contribute to determining theemulsification time.7.3.2 Hydrophilic Emulsifiers are water-miscible liquidsused to emulsify the excess post-em

41、ulsified penetrant on thesurface of the part, rendering it water-washable. These water-base emulsifiers (detergent-type removers) are supplied asconcentrates to be diluted with water and used as a dip or spray.The concentration, use and maintenance shall be in accordancewith manufacturers recommenda

42、tions.7.3.2.1 Hydrophilic emulsifiers function by displacing theexcess penetrant film from the surface of the part throughdetergent action. The force of the water spray or air/mechanicalagitation in an open dip tank provides the scrubbing actionwhile the detergent displaces the film of penetrant fro

43、m the partsurface. The individual characteristics of the emulsifier andpenetrant, and the geometry and surface roughness of the partmaterial contribute to determining the emulsification time.Emulsification concentration shall be monitored weekly usinga suitable refractometer.7.4 Solvent RemoversSolv

44、ent removers function by dis-solving the penetrant, making it possible to wipe the surfaceclean and free of excess penetrant.7.5 DevelopersDevelopers form a translucent or whiteabsorptive coating that aids in bringing the penetrant out ofsurface discontinuities through blotting action, thus increasi

45、ngthe visibility of the indications.7.5.1 Dry Powder DevelopersDry powder developers areused as supplied, that is, free-flowing, non-caking powder (see8.8.1). Care should be taken not to contaminate the developerwith fluorescent penetrant, as the contaminated developerspecks can appear as penetrant

46、indications.7.5.2 Aqueous DevelopersAqueous developers are nor-mally supplied as dry powder particles to be either suspended(water suspendable) or dissolved (water soluble) in water. Theconcentration, use and maintenance shall be in accordance withmanufacturers recommendations. Water soluble develop

47、ersshall not be used with Type 2 penetrants or Type 1, Method Apenetrants.NOTE 5Aqueous developers may cause stripping of indications if notproperly applied and controlled. The procedure should be qualified inaccordance with 10.2.7.5.3 Nonaqueous Wet DevelopersNonaqueous wet de-velopers are supplied

48、 as suspensions of developer particles ina nonaqueous solvent carrier ready for use as supplied.Nonaqueous, wet developers are sprayed on to form a thincoating on the surface of the part when dried. This thin coatingserves as the developing medium.NOTE 6This type of developer is intended for applica

49、tion by sprayonly.7.5.4 Liquid Film Developers are solutions or colloidalsuspensions of resins/polymer in a suitable carrier. Thesedevelopers will form a transparent or translucent coating on thesurface of the part. Certain types of film developer may bestripped from the part and retained for record purposes (see8.8.4).8. Procedure8.1 The following processing parameters apply to bothfluorescent and visible penetrant testing methods.8.2 Temperature LimitsThe temperature of the penetrantmaterials and the surface of the part to be processed shall bebetween 40
