Significance and Use3.1 The availability of a standard procedure, standard ma-terial, and a standard plot should

7、make it easy for an investi-gator to check his techniques. This should lead to polarizationcurves in the literature which can be compared with confi-dence.3.2 Samples of a standard ferritic Type 430 stainless steel(UNS S43000) used in obtaining standard reference plot areavailable for those who wish

8、 to check their own test procedureand equipment.33.3 Standard potentiostatic and potentiodynamic polariza-tion plots are supplied with the purchase of the referencematerial. These reference data are based on the results fromdifferent laboratories that followed the standard procedure,using that mater

For the type and size of standardspecimen supplied, the potentiostat shou

19、ld have a potentialrange from 0.6 to 1.6 V and an anodic current output rangefrom 1.0 to 105A.4.3 Potential-Measuring Instruments (Note 2):4.3.1 The potential-measuring circuit should have a highinput impedance on the order of 1011to 1014V to minimizecurrent drawn from the system during measurements

22、specimen with a surface area of approximately5cm2.4.5 Anodic Polarization Circuit:4.5.1 A schematic potentiostatic anodic polarization wiringdiagram (2) is illustrated in Fig. 4.4.5.2 A scanning potentiostat is used for potentiodynamicmeasurements. For such measurements the potentiostat shall becapa

23、ble of automatically varying the potential at a constant ratebetween two preset potentials. A record of the potential andcurrent is plotted continuously using such instruments as anX-Y recorder and a logarithmic converter incorporated into thecircuit shown in Fig. 4. Some potentiostats have an outpu

24、t ofthe logarithm of the current as a voltage, which allows directplotting of the potential log current curve using an X-Yrecorder.NOTE 2The instrumental requirements are based upon values typicalof the instruments in 15 laboratories.4.6 Electrode Holder (1):4.6.1 The auxiliary and working electrode

25、s are mounted inthe type of holder shown in Fig. 5. A longer holder is requiredfor the working electrode than for the auxiliary electrode. Aleak-proof assembly is obtained by the proper compression fitbetween the electrode and a TFE-fluorocarbon gasket. (Toomuch pressure may cause shielding of the e

26、lectrode or break-age of the glass holder, and too little pressure may causeleakage and subsequently crevice corrosion which may affectthe test results.)4.7 Electrodes:4.7.1 Working Electrode, prepared from a 12.7-mm (12-in.)length of 9.5-mm (38-in.) diameter rod stock. Each electrode isdrilled, tap

27、ped, and mounted in the manner discussed in 4.6.1.NOTE 3If specimen forms are used other than those called for by thistest method, for example, flat sheet specimen, care should be taken sinceit was shown that crevices may be introduced which can lead to erroneousresults (see Fig. X1.1).4.7.1.1 The s

28、tandard AISI Type 430 stainless steel (UNSS43000) should be used if one wishes to reproduce a standardreference plot. This material is prepared from a single heat ofmetal that is mill-annealed for12 h at 815C (1500F) and aircooled. The chemical composition of the standard stainlesssteel is supplied

29、with the purchase of reference material.4.7.2 Auxiliary Electrodes:FIG. 3 Schematic Diagram of Polarization Cell (1)FIG. 4 Schematic Potentiostatic Anodic PolarizationWiring Diagram (2) FIG. 5 Specimen Mounted on Electrode HolderG594(2004)34.7.2.1 Two platinum auxiliary electrodes are prepared fromh

30、igh-purity rod stock. Each electrode is drilled, tapped, andmounted with a TFE-fluorocarbon gasket in the same manneras the working electrode. A large platinum sheet sealed into aglass holder is also acceptable.4.7.2.2 A platinized surface may be utilized because of theincreased surface area. This m

31、ay be accomplished by cleaningthe surface in hot aqua regia (3 parts concentrated HCl and 1part concentrated HNO3), washing, and then drying. Bothelectrodes are platinized by immersing them in a solution of3 % platinic chloride and 0.02 % lead acetate and electrolyzingat a current density of 40 to 5

32、0 mA/cm2for4or5min(1, 3).The polarity is reversed every minute. Occluded chloride isremoved by electrolyzing in a dilute (10 %) sulfuric acidsolution for several minutes with a reversal in polarity everyminute. Electrodes are rinsed thoroughly and stored in distilledwater until ready for use. Since

33、certain ions can poison theseelectrodes, periodic checks of platinized platinum potentialsagainst a known reference electrode should be made.4.7.2.3 Alternatively, graphite auxiliary electrodes can beused, but material retained by the graphite may contaminatesubsequent experiments. This contaminatio

34、n can be minimizedby using high-density graphite or avoided by routinely replac-ing the graphite electrode.4.7.3 Reference Electrode (4):4.7.3.1 A saturated calomel electrode with a controlled rateof leakage (about 3 L/h) is recommended. This type ofelectrode is durable, reliable, and commercially a

35、vailable.Precautions shall be taken to ensure that it is maintained in theproper condition. The potential of the calomel electrode shouldbe checked at periodic intervals to ensure the accuracy of theelectrode. For other alloy-electrolyte combinations a differentreference electrode may be preferred i

36、n order to avoid con-tamination of the reference electrode or the electrolyte.4.7.3.2 Alternatively, a saturated calomel electrode utilizinga semi-permeable membrane or porous plug tip may be used.These may require special care.5. Experimental Procedure5.1 Prepare 1 L of 1.0 N H2SO4from A.C.S. reage

37、nt gradeacid and distilled water, for example, by using 27.8 mL of 98 %H2SO4/L of solution. Transfer 900 mL of solution to the cleanpolarization cell.5.2 Place the platinized auxiliary electrodes, salt-bridgeprobe, and other components in the test cell and temporarilyclose the center opening with a

38、glass stopper. Fill the saltbridge with test solution.NOTE 4When using a controlled leakage salt bridge, the levels of thesolution in the reference and polarization cells should be the same to avoidsiphoning. If this is impossible, a closed solution-wet (not greased)stopcock can be used in the salt

39、bridge to eliminate siphoning, or asemi-permeable membrane or porous plug tip may be used on the saltbridge.5.3 Bring the temperature of the solution to 30 6 1C byimmersing the test cell in a controlled-temperature water bathor by other convenient means.5.4 Reduce oxygen levels in solution prior to

40、immersion ofthe test specimen. This may be accomplished by bubbling anoxygen-free gas such as hydrogen, argon, or nitrogen at a rateof 150 cm3/min for a minimum of12 h.5.5 Prepare the working electrode surface within1hoftheexperiment. Wet grind with 240-grit SiC paper, wet polish with600-grit SiC pa

41、per until previous coarse scratches are removed,rinse, and dry. (Drilled and tapped specimens can be threadedonto an electrode holder rod and secured in a lathe or electricdrill for this operation.)5.6 Determine the surface area by measuring all dimensionsto the nearest 0.01 mm, subtracting the area

42、 under the gasket(usually 0.20 to 0.25 cm2).5.7 Mount the specimen on the electrode holder as de-scribed in 4.6.1. Tighten the assembly by holding the upper endof the mounting rod in a vise or clamp while tightening themounting nut until the gasket is properly compressed.5.8 Degrease the specimen ju

43、st prior to immersion and thenrinse in distilled water.5.9 Transfer the specimen to the test cell and adjust thesalt-bridge probe tip so it is about 2 mm or 2 times the tipdiameter, whichever is larger from the specimen electrode.5.10 Record the open-circuit specimen potential, that is, thecorrosion

44、 potential, after 55 min immersion. If platinumcounter electrodes and hydrogen gas are used, record theplatinum potential 50 min after immersion of the specimen.5.11 Potential Scan:5.11.1 Start the potential scan or step 1 h after specimenimmersion, beginning at the corrosion potential (Ecorr) forpo

45、tentiodynamic measurements and the nearest 50-mV incre-ment above Ecorrfor the potentiostatic measurements. Proceedthrough + 1.60 V versus saturated calomel electrode (SCE)(active to noble).5.11.2 In the potentiostatic method, use a potentiostaticpotential step rate of 50 mV every 5 min, recording t

46、he currentat the end of each 5-min period at potential. These steps arerepeated until a potential of + 1.6 V SCE is reached.5.11.3 In the potentiodynamic method, use a potentiody-namic potential sweep rate of 0.6 V/h (65 %) recording thecurrent continuously with change in potential from the corro-si

47、on potential to + 1.6 V SCE.5.12 Plot anodic polarization data on semilogarithmic paperin accordance with Practice G 3, (potential-ordinate, currentdensity-abscissa). If a potentiostat with a logarithmic converteris used, this plot can be produced directly during the measure-ment.6. Standard Referen

48、ce Plots6.1 Standard polarization plots prepared from data obtainedby following the standard procedure discussed in this testmethod are supplied with the purchase of reference material.Typical data are shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 (5). The plots showa range of acceptable current density values at each

49、 potential.The average corrosion potential is 0.52 V, and the averageplatinized platinum potential is 0.26 V.NOTE 5The plots in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 correspond to a lot of Type 430stainless steel that is no longer available from ASTM (after July 1992).Figs. 1 and 2 are presented primarily for the discussion of precision andbias in Sections 6, 7, and Appendix X1. The scatter bands presented inAppendix X2 were developed from a round robin testing program on thelot of Type 430 stainless steel that is currently available from ASTM.G594(2004)46.2 Typical deviations from t
