2、e 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.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S. Department of Defense.1. Scope1.1 This guide provides in

9、, there are recognized NDT specialists that arecertified in accordance with industry and company NDTspecifications. It is recommended that a NDT specialist be apart of any composite component design, quality assurance,in-service maintenance or damage examination.1.6 This guide summarizes the applica

10、tion of NDT proce-dures to fiber- and fabric-reinforced polymeric matrix compos-ites. The composites of interest are primarily, but not exclu-sively limited to those containing high modulus (greater than20 GPa (3106psi) fibers. Furthermore, an emphasis is placedon composites with continuous (versus

11、discontinuous) fiberreinforcement.1.7 This guide is applicable to PMCs containing but notlimited to bismaleimide, epoxy, phenolic, poly(amide imide),polybenzimidazole, polyester (thermosetting andthermoplastic), poly(ether ether ketone), poly(ether imide),polyimide (thermosetting and thermoplastic),

12、 poly(phenylenesulfide), or polysulfone matrices; and alumina, aramid, boron,carbon, glass, quartz, or silicon carbide fibers.1.8 The composite materials considered herein include uni-axial laminae, cross-ply laminates, angle-ply laminates, andstructural sandwich constructions. The composite compone

13、ntsmade therefrom include filament-wound pressure vessels,flight control surfaces, and various structural composites.1.9 For current and potential NDT procedures for findingindications of discontinuities in the composite overwrap infilament-wound pressure vessels, also known as compositeoverwrapped

14、pressure vessels (COPVs), refer to Guide E2981.1.10 For a summary of the application of destructiveASTMstandard practices and test methods (and other supportingstandards) to continuous-fiber reinforced PMCs, refer to GuideD4762.1.11 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard. Th
