Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 The definitions relating to liquid penetrant exami

19、na-tion that appear in Terminology E1316, shall apply to the termsused in this practice.4. Summary of Practice4.1 A liquid penetrant is applied evenly over the surfacebeing examined and allowed to enter open discontinuities.After a suitable dwell time, the excess surface penetrant isremoved with wat

20、er and the surface is dried prior to theapplication of a developer. A developer is then applied,drawing the entrapped penetrant out of the discontinuities andstaining the developer. If an aqueous developer is to beemployed, the developer is applied prior to the drying step.After application of the d

21、eveloper, a suitable development timeis allowed to permit the entrapped penetrant to exit from thediscontinuities. The test surface is then examined visuallyunder adequate illumination to determine the presence orabsence of indications.4.2 The selection of specific water-washable penetrant pro-cess

22、parameters depends upon the nature of the application,conditions under which the examination is to be performed,availability of processing equipment, and type of materials toperform the examination. (WarningA controlled method forapplying water and disposing of the water is essential.)4.3 Processing

23、 parameters, such as precleaning, penetrationtime and wash times, are determined by the specific materialsused, the nature of the part under examination (that is, size,shape, surface condition, alloy) and type of discontinuitiesexpected.5. Significance and Use5.1 Liquid penetrant examination methods

24、 indicate thepresence, location, and, to a limited extent, the nature andmagnitude of the detected discontinuities. This practice isnormally used for production examination of large volumes ofparts or structures, where emphasis is on productivity. Thispractice offers a wide latitude in applicability

25、 when extensiveand controlled conditions are available.6. Reagents and Materials6.1 Visible, Water-Washable Liquid Penetrant TestingMaterials, consisting of applicable visible penetrants as rec-ommended by the manufacturer, and are classified as Type IIVisible Method AWater-Washable (see Note 1). Pe

26、netrantmaterials shall conform to AMS 2644 unless approved by thecontract or Level III. (WarningWhile approved penetrantmaterials will not adversely affect common metallic materials,some plastics or rubber may be swollen or stained by certainpenetrants.)NOTE 1Refer to 8.1 for special requirements fo

27、r sulfur, halogen, andalkali metal content.6.2 Water-Washable Penetrants, designed to be directlywater-washable from the surface of the part, after a suitablepenetrant dwell time. Because the emulsifier is “built-in” to thewater-washable penetrant, it is extremely important to exerciseproper process

28、 control in removing excess penetrant to ensureagainst overwashing. Water-washable penetrants can bewashed out of discontinuities if the washing step is too long ortoo vigorous. Some penetrants are less resistant to overwashingthan others.6.3 DevelopersDevelopment of penetrant indications isthe proc

29、ess of bringing the penetrant out of open discontinui-ties through the blotting action of the applied developer, thusincreasing the visibility of the penetrant indications. Thedeveloper used shall provide a contrasting white background.Several types of developers are suitable for use in the visiblep

30、enetrant water-washable process.6.3.1 Aqueous Developers, normally supplied as dry powderparticles to be either suspended or dissolved (soluble) in water.The concentration, use, and maintenance shall be in accordancewith the manufacturers recommendations (see 7.1.7.1).(WarningAqueous developers may

31、cause stripping ofindications, if not properly applied and controlled. The proce-dure should be qualified in accordance with 9.2.)6.3.2 Nonaqueous, Wet Developers, normally supplied assuspensions of developer particles in a volatile solvent carrierand are ready for use as supplied. They are applied

32、to thesurface by spraying after the excess penetrant has beenremoved and the surface has dried. Nonaqueous wet develop-ers form a white coating on the surface of the part when driedand serve as a contrasting background for visible penetrants3Available from TheAmerican Society for Nondestructive Test

(WarningThis type of developer is intendedfor application by spray only.)6.3.3 Liquid Film Developers

35、, solutions or colloidal suspen-sions of resins/polymer in a suitable carrier. These developerswill form a transparent or translucent coating on the surface ofthe part. Certain types of film developers will fix indicationsand may be stripped from the part and retained for recordpurposes (see section

36、 7.1.7.3).7. Procedure7.1 The following general procedures applies to the water-washable, visible penetrant examination method (see Fig. 1).7.1.1 Temperature LimitsThe temperature of the penetrantmaterials and the surface of the part to be processed should befrom 40 to 125F (4 to 52C). When it is no

37、t practical tocomply with these temperature limitations, the procedure mustbe qualified at the temperature of intended use as described in9.2.7.1.2 Surface Conditioning Prior to PenetrantExaminationSatisfactory results can usually be obtained onsurfaces in the as-welded, as-rolled, as-cast, or as-fo

38、rgedconditions (or for ceramics in the densified condition). Whenonly loose surface residuals are present, these may be removedby wiping with a clean lint-free cloth. However, pre-cleaningof metals to remove processing residuals such as oil, graphite,scale, insulating materials, coatings, etc. shoul

39、d be done usingcleaning solvents, vapor degreasing, or chemical removingprocesses. Surface conditioning by grinding, machining,polishing, or etching shall follow shot, sand, grit, and vaporblasting to remove the peened skin, and when penetrantentrapment in surface irregularities might mask the indic

40、ationsof unacceptable discontinuities or otherwise interfere with theeffectiveness of the examination. For metals unless otherwisespecified, perform etching when evidence exists that previouscleaning, surface treatments, or service usage have produced asurface condition that degrades the effectivene

41、ss of penetrantexamination. (SeeAnnexA1.1.1.8 in Practice E165/E165M forprecautions).NOTE 2When agreed between purchaser and supplier, grit blastingwithout subsequent etching may be an acceptable cleaning method.(WarningSand or shot blasting may possibly close indications andextreme care should be u

42、sed with grinding and machining operations.)NOTE 3For structural or electronic ceramics, surface preparation bygrinding, sand blasting and etching for penetrant examination is notrecommended because of the potential for damage.7.1.3 Removal of Surface Contaminants:7.1.3.1 PrecleaningThe success of a

43、ny penetrant exami-nation procedure is greatly dependent upon the surface anddiscontinuity being free of any contaminant (solid or liquid)that might interfere with the penetrant process. All parts orareas of parts to be examined must be clean and dry before thepenetrant is applied. If only a section

47、must be free of rust, scale, welding flux, spatter, grease,paint, oily films, dirt, etc., that might interfere with penetration.All of these contaminants can prevent the penetrant fromentering discontinuities. (See the annex on Cleaning of Partsand Materials in Practice E165/E165M for more detailedc

48、leaning methods.) (WarningResidues from cleaning pro-cesses such as strong alkalies, pickling solutions, andchromates, in particular, may adversely react with the penetrantand reduce its sensitivity and performance.)7.1.3.2 Drying After CleaningIt is essential that the sur-faces be thoroughly dry af

49、ter cleaning, since any liquid residuewill hinder the entrance of the penetrant. Drying may beaccomplished by warming the parts in drying ovens, withinfrared lamps, forced hot or cold air, or by exposure toambient temperature.7.1.4 Penetrant ApplicationsAfter the area to be exam-ined has been cleaned, dried, and is within the specifiedtemperature range, apply the penetrant to the surface to beexamined so that the entire part or area under examination iscompletely covered with penetrant.7.1.4.1 Modes of ApplicationThere are various modes ofeffective applicati
