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 stress-free mate

Procedure4.1 Instrument Alignment:4.1.1 Align the X-ray diffraction instrumentation to be used

11、for 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 be

12、 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 diffractio

18、8-2959, United States.4.2 X-Ray Optics:4.2.1 Appropriate X-ray peak selection should be made atthe highest diffraction angle possible, consistent with peakintensity, and this may include selection of the x-radiation to beused.4.2.2 When the Ka characteristic radiation doublet is usedfor stress measu

19、rement, it is desirable to select incident andreceiving X-ray beam optics that will produce maximumseparation of the Ka1Ka2doublet. Perform 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 w

20、ith the angle c, and because someinstrumentation may be incapable (due to fixed X-ray optics) ofobtaining resolution of the doublet, care 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

21、Iron Specimen:4.3.1 Use iron powder with a particle size greater than 1 m(4 3 105in.) (See Note 2.)4.3.2 This standard may be applied to other metallic alloysand ceramics (see 1.3).4.3.3 The reporting of strain instead of stress circumventsthe necessity of establishing applicable elastic constants a

22、ndserves to eliminate a source of uncertainty.NOTE 2Annealed armco iron powder of 45 m (325 mesh) has beenfound suitable when using Cr K-alpha x-radiation.4.3.4 Annealing of the powder in vacuum reduces diffrac-tion peak width, thereby increasing diffraction peak resolution.This is generally desirab

23、le (see Note 3). Powders in the form ofplastically deformed filings may be used, but will producebroader diffraction peaks. In the event that an instrumentincapable of resolution of the Ka1Ka2doublet is beingemployed, it may be desirable to deliberately obtain plasticallydeformed powders which insur

24、e that partial resolution of theKa doublet does not occur. Extremely fine powders have alsobeen shown to produce line 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 p

25、roblems fromsurface contamination. It is not necessary to anneal ceramic powders sincethese materials do not tend to show line broadening from plasticdeformation.4.4 Stress-Free Specimen PreparationPreparation meth-ods other than those described below are permissible providingthat no residual stress

26、 (strain) is sustained in the binder thatmight be used to hold the crystalline particles together.4.4.1 Apermanent stress-free (strain-free) specimen may beprepared by mounting the powder on the face of a microscopeslide or in a shallow powder tray (of the type used for powderdiffraction work on a d

27、iffractometer) using a 10 % solution ofnitrocellulose cement diluted with acetone as a suitable amor-phous binder. Place several drops of the solution on a cleanmicroscope slide or in a sample tray, and sprinkle the powderinto the binder. The powder may be spread and leveled with asecond microscope

28、slide. When a uniform flat surface 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

29、the surface with acetone and 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 j

30、elly on the face of one microscope slide andpress it against a second slide to extrude the petroleum jellyFIG. 1 X-Ray Diffraction Stress Measurement Geometry and Angles DefinedE915 102into a uniform flat film. Remove the second microscope slidewith a wiping action taking care to keep the surface la

31、yer ofpetroleum jelly thin and flat. Holding the petroleum jelly-coated slide at a steep angle to a vertical 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

32、 build upon the surface.4.4.3 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 Alignment Check:4.5.1 Position the stress-free (strain-free) specimen on theX-ray diffraction apparatu

33、s (see 4.1.1.4). In the event that amechanical gage which contacts the surface of the specimen isused for specimen positioning, a thin metal shim may be placedin front of the powder surface to protect it. Place this gageagainst the face of the metal shim, and adjust the positioning toaccount for the

34、 inclusion of the shim in front of the gage suchthat the surface 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 over the center ofrotation of the c and 2u axes induces a systematic specimen displa

35、cementerror.4.5.2 Without adjusting the specimen position, perform fivesuccessive stress measurements using the method and correc-tion procedures normally employed for the instrument, includ-ing positive and negative psi tilts when applicable. Psi splittingis a symptom of misalignment where psi is t

36、he angle betweenthe specimrn surface normal and the diffracting plane normal.5The strain differential between the split linear portions of theleast square fit sin-square-psi plots should be equivalent to lessthan 14 Mpa (2ksi). To avoid systematic error in the verifica-tion process when Ka radiation

37、 is being used, care must betaken to either completely split 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 measurement errors and tolerances are

38、withinthose specified in Sections 5 and 6.5. Calculations and Interpretation of Results5.1 Systematic ErrorAll methods leading to the calcula-tion of both in-plane and shear stresses can be employed.Thesemethods are based on the calculation of the slope and theopening of the d-spacing versus sin-squ

39、are-psi values.5.1.1 Reduce the X-ray diffraction data obtained from thefive measurements in whatever manner is normally employedfor the X-ray diffraction instrumentation in use, and include allcorrections normally applied to raw X-ray diffraction data.Application of the X-ray elastic constants appr

40、opriate for thestressed material to be measured is important. It may beadvantageous to report strain values, rather than stress, to avoidthe uncertainty of specifying elastic constants. Calculate thesimple arithmetic mean and standard deviation about the meanfor the five measurements. If the mean va

41、lue is within 14 MPa(2.0 ksi) of zero, the instrument and specimen-positioning gagecan be considered to be properly aligned. In the event that themean differs from zero by more than 14 MPa (2.0 ksi), repeat4.1 and 4.5.5.1.2 Alternatively, strain values may be used. This avoidserror due to selection

42、of inappropriate elastic constants. Theacceptable strain mean would be 100 ppm of the stress-free(strain-free) d-spacing; 50 ppm for shear strain.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 ev

43、ent that the standard deviation 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 t

44、o take sufficient time during 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

45、 peak positions. Mechanical sourcesof error such as loose bearings and ways in the apparatus mayresult in significant random error.5.2.2 When strain values are reported the standard deviationof the five measurements should be within 100 ppm; 50 ppmfor shear stress.6. Precision and Bias6.1 The precis

46、ion of this method will be dependent upon thetype of X-ray diffraction instrumentation employed and themethods of data reduction used in stress measurement. Thepreliminary results of round-robin investigations using thismethod indicate that instrument alignment within 14 MPa (2.0ksi) (see 5.1) can b

47、e achieved for both standard diffractometersand two types of X-ray diffraction instrumentation designed forstress measurement in the back reflection region only. Instru-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

48、 is considered to be absolutebecause the specimen is stress-free. Deviation of resultsobtained in performing this method, provided the specimen hasbeen properly prepared and maintained, can be attributed to theinstrumentation under investigation.6.3 Other sources of error can be related to different

49、 factors,such as the quality of the diffracted X-ray peaks (backgroundand noise). In some cases, depending on the material, theaverage stress (strain) precision may not be achievable. Thus,users may need to investigate the issue or choose a differentstress-free (strain-free) material.7.
