4、line samples employing measurement of a diffrac-tion peak position in the high-back reflection region, and inwhich the u,2u, and c rotation axes can be made to coincide(see Fig. 1).1.3 This test method describes the use of iron powder whichhas been investigated in round-robin studies for the purpose

5、 ofverifying the alignment of instrumentation intended for stressmeasurement in ferritic or martensitic steels. To verify instru-ment alignment prior to stress measurement in other alloys,base metal powder having the same crystal structure as thealloy should be prepared in similar fashion and used t

Significance and Use3.1 This test method provides a means of verifying instru-ment alignment in order to quantify and minimize systematicexper

8、imental error in X-ray diffraction residual stress measure-ment. This method is suitable for application to conventionaldiffractometers or to X-ray diffraction instrumentation of eitherthe diverging or parallel beam types.3, 43.2 Application of this test method requires the use of a flatspecimen of

9、stress-free material that produces diffraction in theangular region of the diffraction peak to be used for stressmeasurement. The specimen must be sufficiently fine-grainedso that large numbers of individual crystals contribute to thediffraction peak produced. The crystals must provide intensediffra

10、ction at all angles of tilt, c, which will be employed (seeNote 1).NOTE 1Complete freedom from preferred orientation in the stressfreespecimen is, however, not critical in the application of the technique.4. Procedure4.1 Instrument Alignment:4.1.1 Align the X-ray diffraction instrumentation to be us

11、edfor residual stress measurement in accordance with the instruc-tions supplied by the manufacturer. In general, this alignmentmust achieve the following, whether the u,2u, and c axes arevariable or fixed (see Fig. 1):4.1.1.1 The u,2u, and c axes shall coincide.4.1.1.2 The incident X-ray beam shall

12、be centered on the cand 2u axes, within a focusing range, which will conform to thedesired error and precision tolerances (see sections 5 and 6).4.1.1.3 The X-ray tube focal spot, the c and 2u axes, and thereceiving slit positioned at 2u equals zero degrees shall be ona line in the plane of diffract

13、ion. Alternatively, for instrumen-tation limited to the back reflection region, the diffraction angle2u shall be calibrated.4.1.1.4 The proper sample position shall be established,using whatever means are provided with the instrument, suchthat the surface of the sample is positioned at the u and c a

14、xes, within the focal distance range which will conform to thedesired error and precision tolerances (see sections 5 and 6).4.1.1.5 The angle c must be determined accurately.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee E28 onMechanical Testing and is the direct responsibility of Sub

Perfo

18、rm stress measure-ments on the stress-free specimen employing the Ka1diffrac-tion peak at all c angles investigated. Because resolution of theKa doublet may vary with the angle c, and because someinstrumentation may be incapable (due to fixed X-ray optics) ofobtaining resolution of the doublet, care

19、 must be taken not toresolve the doublet at some c angles while blending thedoublet into a single peak at other c angles.4.3 Selection of Powder for a Stress-Free Iron Specimen:4.3.1 Use iron powder with a particle size greater than 1 m(4 3 105in.) (See Note 2.)NOTE 2Annealed armco iron powder of 45

20、 m (325 mesh) has beenfound suitable.4.3.2 Annealing of the powder in vacuum reduces diffrac-tion peak width, thereby increasing diffraction peak resolution.This is generally desirable (see Note 3). Powders in the form ofplastically deformed filings may be used, but will producebroader diffraction p

21、eaks. In the event that an instrumentincapable of resolution of the Ka1Ka2doublet is beingemployed, it may be desirable to deliberately obtain plasticallydeformed powders which insure that partial resolution of theKa doublet does not occur. Extremely fine powders have alsobeen shown to produce line

22、broadening, sufficient to suppressresolution of the Ka doublet.NOTE 3It may be advantageous to anneal an oxide-forming powder ina reducing atmosphere rather than in vacuum to avoid problems fromsurface contamination. It is not necessary to anneal ceramic powders sincethese materials do not tend to s

23、how line broadening from plasticdeformation.4.4 Stress-Free Specimen Preparation:4.4.1 A permanent stress-free specimen may be prepared bymounting the powder on the face of a microscope slide or in ashallow powder tray (of the type used for powder diffractionwork on a diffractometer) using a 10 % so

24、lution of nitrocellu-lose cement5diluted with acetone as a suitable amorphousbinder. Place several drops of the solution on a clean micro-scope slide or in a sample tray, and sprinkle the powder into thebinder. The powder may be spread and leveled with a secondmicroscope slide. When a uniform flat s

25、urface has beenproduced by alternately wetting with the binder solution andwiping with a second slide, set the specimen aside and allow itto dry for several hours. Excess amounts of the binder maycause it to peel away from the surface of the microscope slide.Rewetting of the surface with acetone and

26、 redrying mayeliminate this difficulty. Make the surface of the specimen asflat as possible so that the specimen surface is clearly defined.4.4.2 A temporary specimen may be rapidly prepared usingpetroleum jelly as an amorphous binder. Place a small quantityof petroleum jelly on the face of one micr

27、oscope slide andpress it against a second slide to extrude the petroleum jellyinto a uniform flat film. Remove the second microscope slidewith a wiping action taking care to keep the surface layer ofpetroleum jelly thin and flat. Holding the petroleum jelly-coated slide at a steep angle to a vertica

28、l line, sprinkle the ironpowder from a sufficient height above the slide so that thepowder strikes the coated surface and either adheres or isdeflected away. Do not allow the powder to pack and build upon the surface.5Duco Cement available from DuPont Co., Wilmington, DE 19898 has beenfound suitable

29、. Paraffin wax may also be used.FIG. 1 X-Ray Diffraction Stress Measurement Geometry and Angles DefinedE 915 96 (2002)24.4.3 The surface area of the powder must be of sufficientsize to intersect the entire incident X-ray beam at all c anglesto be used during stress measurement.4.5 Instrument Alignme

30、nt Check:4.5.1 Position the stress-free specimen on the X-ray diffrac-tion apparatus (see 4.1.1.4). In the event that a mechanical gagewhich contacts the surface of the specimen is used forspecimen positioning, a thin metal shim may be placed in frontof the powder surface to protect it. Place this g

31、age against theface of the metal shim, and adjust the positioning to account forthe inclusion of the shim in front of the gage such that thesurface of the powder is at the correct distance from thereference point of the gage for stress measurement.NOTE 4Failure to place the powder surface directly o

32、ver the center ofrotation of the c and 2u axes induces a systematic specimen displacementerror.4.5.2 Without adjusting the specimen position, perform fivesuccessive stress measurements using the method and correc-tion procedures normally employed for the instrument. Toavoid systematic error in the v

33、erification process when Karadiation is being used, care must be taken to either completelysplit or blend the Ka1Ka2doublet (see 4.2).NOTE 5Values for accuracy and precision of the various angles anddisplacements are not specified herein. These may be considered to be metcollectively when overall me

34、asurement errors and tolerances are withinthose specified in Sections 5 and 6.5. Calculations and Interpretation of Results5.1 Systematic Error:5.1.1 Reduce the X-ray diffraction data obtained from thefive measurements in whatever manner is normally employedfor the X-ray diffraction instrumentation

35、in use, and include allcorrections normally applied to raw X-ray diffraction data.Calculate the simple arithmetic mean and standard deviationabout the mean for the five measurements. If the mean value iswithin 14 MPa (2.0 ksi) of zero, the instrument and specimen-positioning gage can be considered t

36、o be properly aligned. Inthe event that the mean differs from zero by more than 14 MPa(2.0 ksi), repeat 4.1 and 4.5.5.2 Random Error:5.2.1 Experience has shown that the standard deviation ofthe five measurements should be within approximately 6.9MPa (1.0 ksi). In the event that the standard deviatio

37、n of thefive measurements exceeds 14 MPa (2.0 ksi), the stress-measurement technique employed and the instrumentationshould be investigated for sources of random error affecting themeasurement precision. Random error due to counting statis-tics may result from failure to take sufficient time during

38、themeasurement to obtain accurate intensity information, and thusto accurately determine the diffraction peak positions. Methodsare available3for estimating the standard deviation of themeasured stress due to the errors involved in counting andcurve fitting to determine peak positions. Mechanical so

39、urcesof error such as loose bearings and ways in the apparatus mayresult in significant random error.6. Precision and Bias6.1 The precision of this method will be dependent upon thetype of X-ray diffraction instrumentation employed and themethods of data reduction used in stress measurement. Theprel

40、iminary results of round-robin investigations using thismethod indicate that instrument alignment within 14 MPa (2.0ksi) (see 5.1) can be achieved for both standard diffractometersand two types of X-ray diffraction instrumentation designed forstress measurement in the back reflection region only. In

41、stru-mental precision measured by this method (see 5.2) has beenfound to be less than 66.9 MPa (1.0 ksi).6.2 The accuracy of this method is considered to be absolutebecause the specimen is stress-free. Deviation of resultsobtained in performing this method, provided the specimen hasbeen properly pre

42、pared and maintained, can be attributed to theinstrumentation under investigation.7.
