Summary of Test Method4.1 The test method determines the potential independentcr

16、itical pitting temperature (CPT) by way of a potentiostatictechnique using a temperature scan and a specimen holder thatis designed to eliminate the occurrence of crevice corrosion(see Fig. 1). The specimen is exposed, either entirely or in part,depending on test cell configuration to a 1M NaCl solu

17、tion,initially at 0C. After an initial temperature stabilizationperiod, the solution is heated at a rate of 1C/min. About 60 sbefore the temperature scan is commenced, the specimen isanodically polarized to a potential above the pitting potentialrange. This potential is held constant during the whol

18、e tem-perature scan. A potential of 700 mV versus SCE (25C) hasbeen found suitable for most stainless steels. The current ismonitored during the temperature scan, and the CPT is definedas the temperature at which the current increases rapidly, whichfor practical reasons is defined as the temperature

19、 at which thecurrent density exceeds 100 A/cm2for 60 s. Pitting on thespecimen is confirmed visually after the test.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a prediction of the resistanceto stable propagating pitting corrosion of stainless steels andrelated alloys in a standard medium (s

20、ee Note 1). The CPT testcan be used for product acceptance, alloy development studies,and manufacturing control. In the case of product acceptance,the supplier and user must agree upon the preconditioning ofthe specimen with regard to surface finish. The test is notintended for design purposes since

21、 the test conditions acceler-ate corrosion in a manner that does not simulate any actualservice environment.5.2 Another method to determine the potential independentCPT with an electrochemical technique has been discussed inthe literature (1-4). This test method involves a potentiody-namic (potentia

22、l sweep) procedure performed on specimens atdifferent temperatures. A comparison (2) of the test methoddescribed in this test method and the potentiodynamic tech-nique has indicated no difference in the test result obtained.6. Apparatus6.1 The apparatus necessary for determining the CPT con-sists of

23、 instruments for measuring electronic signals, a tem-perature controlling apparatus, a specimen holder, and a testcell. The instruments for measuring electronic signals may beintegrated into one instrument package or may be individualcomponents. Either form of instrumentation can provide ac-ceptable

24、 data. Typical test equipment consists of the following:(1) potentiostat (2) potential measuring instrument (3) currentmeasuring instrument (4) temperature controller (5) tempera-ture measuring instrument (6) test cell (7) specimen holder, and(8) electrodes.6.2 PotentiostatThe potentiostat shall be

25、able to apply theconstant potential to within 1 mV at a current density of 10mA/cm2. The applied potential is changed either automaticallyor manually by shifting the potential from the open circuitpotential to another more noble potential.6.3 Potential Measuring InstrumentRequirements shallbe in acc

26、ordance with the section on Potential MeasuringInstruments in Test Method G5.6.4 Current Measuring InstrumentsAn instrument that iscapable of measuring a current accurately to within 5 % of theactual value. The typical current densities encountered duringthe CPT test are in the range of 1 A/cm2to 10

27、 mA/cm2.6.5 Temperature Controller:6.5.1 Thermostat equipment is required that can providecooling and heating of the test solution in the temperaturerange from 0C to approximately 100C. Further, the tempera-ture controller is used to provide controlled heating, whichgives the test solution temperatu

28、re a temperature increase rateof 1C/min in the range from 0C to approximately 100C.6.5.2 Above 10C, the average rate of temperature changeof the test solution shall be 1.0 6 0.3C/min, where the averageis calculated over a temperature range of 10C.6.6 Temperature Measurement Instrumentation, shall be

29、capable of measuring the temperature of the test solution withan accuracy of 60.4C.6.7 Test Cell:6.7.1 Option 1, G5 TypeThe test cell should be similar tothe one described in Test Method G5. Other similar polariza-tion cells may be equally suitable. The gas purger shoulddistribute the gas in numerou

30、s small bubbles.6.7.2 Option 2, Flushed-port CellThis cell design is basedon that published by R. Qvarfort (3) and includes the specimenholder in the design. The advantages of this cell design are thatthe specimen edges and back do not need to be machined, thespecimen does not have to be mounted ins

31、ide the cell, andcrevice corrosion at the contact area of the cell port iscompletely eliminated, even at elevated test temperatures. SeeAppendix X2 for a description of this cell. The gas purgershould distribute the gas in numerous small bubbles.6.7.3 The test cell shall be able to contain a test so

32、lutionvolume of minimum 100 mL per square centimetre test area. Amaximum dilution of 15 % of the test solution during the testperiod is allowed in case a flushed port cell or similararrangement is used.6.8 Specimen Holder:FIG. 1 Determination of CPTG 150 99 (2004)26.8.1 Any part of the specimen hold

33、er coming in contactwith the test solution during testing shall be made of an inertmaterial, and any seal shall not allow leakage of electrolyte.6.8.2 The specimen holder shall have a design that ensuresno occurrence of crevice corrosion at the contact area betweenspecimen holder and specimen.6.8.3

34、Two examples of specimen holder designs in accor-dance with this standard are shown in Appendix X2 andAppendix X3. The major difference between the specimenholder designs lies in the allowable specimen geometry and thenumber of surfaces on the specimen that are being testedsimultaneously.6.9 Electro

35、des:6.9.1 Auxiliary (Counter) ElectrodeRequirements shallbe in accordance with the section Auxiliary Electrodes in TestMethod G5with the exception that only one counter electrodeis necessary for CPT testing. The electrode material shall be ofa type which can be considered inert under the test condit

36、ions.6.9.2 Reference ElectrodeThe reference electrode shall bekept at room temperature outside the actual test cell. Thereference electrode shall be capable of ensuring a constantreference potential within 65 mV during the entire testprocedure (see Note 2). Electrical contact to the test solutionsha

37、ll be provided by the use of a luggin capillary placed in thetest solution. Requirements shall otherwise be in accordancewith the section on Reference Electrode in Test Method G5.NOTE 2It may be difficult to ensure a fully constant referencepotential due to the large variations in temperature of the

38、 test solution;therefore, the allowable is 65 mV. This does, however, not affect themeasured potential independent CPT (1).7. Test Specimens7.1 FinishAny geometry and surface finish (see Note 3)compatible with the chosen specimen holder as specified in 6.8may be used.NOTE 3The state of the surface m

39、ay be dependent on the time andlocation of storage between the final mechanical or chemical surfacetreatment and testing. The time and location of storage may, therefore, insome situations be considered an integral part of the surface finish.7.2 SamplingWhen using this test method to meet productacc

40、eptance criteria, the means of sampling of a test specimenshall be decided by agreement between the parties involved.7.3 Test AreaA minimum test area of 1 cm2shall be used.7.4 Specimens removed from a work piece or component byshearing, cutting, burning, and so forth shall have the affectededges rem

41、oved by grinding or machining, unless it is explicitlyintended to study the effects of these edge factors.8. Reagents and Materials8.1 Purity of ReagentsReagent grade chemicals shall beused in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended thatall reagents conform to the specifications of the

42、 Committee onAnalytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society wheresuch specifications are available.3Other grades may be used,provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficientlyhigh purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy ofthe determination.8.2 Purity of WaterU

43、nless otherwise indicated, referencesto purified water shall be understood to mean reagent water asdefined by Type IV of Specification D 1193.8.3 Standard Test SolutionTo prepare 1 L of 1 M sodiumchloride (NaCl) solution, dissolve 58.45 g sodium chloride(NaCl) in purified water to a total solution v

44、olume of 1 L. Thesolution can be made up in bulk and stored for one month atroom temperature.8.4 Purging GasNitrogen gas of minimum 99.99 % purityshould be used.9. Applied Potential9.1 Standard PotentialAn anodic potential of 700 mVversus SCE (25C) is used. This has been found appropriate formost st

45、ainless steels (1).9.2 Alternative Potential:9.2.1 If uncertainty exists concerning whether the standardpotential is sufficiently high to obtain the potential independentCPT, a test at 800 mV versus SCE (25C) may be performed.A significant deviation between the CPT obtained at 700 mVand 800 mV will

46、indicate a need for a reevaluation and newchoice of potential.NOTE 4Using a lower potential than the standard potential of 700 mVversus SCE (25C) is fully acceptable, provided the determined CPT stillis potential independent. To change the measurement range provided bythe standard test conditions, a

47、 new test solution composition will have tobe chosen. Following the choice of test solution, a test potential thatensures the determination of a potential independent CPT will have to bedetermined.9.2.2 Evaluation of differences in obtained CPT at the twopotentials should take into account the repea

48、tability of the testmethod. The homogeneity of the material used for the twodifferent potentials shall also be considered before an alterna-tive potential is used.10. Procedure10.1 Sample Mounting, Cleaning and Placement:10.1.1 The recommendations given in Practice G1are to befollowed, where applica

49、ble, unless otherwise stated in thisprocedure.10.1.2 Clean the specimen just before immersion in theelectrolyte by degreasing with a suitable detergent, rinsing inpurified water, followed by ethanol or similar solvent, and airdrying.
