Significance and Use3.1 The availability of a standard

7、procedure, standard ma-terial, and a standard plot should 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 obtaini

For the type and size of standardspecimen supplied, the potentiostat should have a potentialrang

Suchcircuits are provided with most

A record of the potential andcurrent is plotted continuously using such instruments as anX-Y recorder and a logarithmic converter

24、 incorporated into thecircuit shown in Fig. 4. Some potentiostats have an output 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

25、laboratories.4.6 Electrode Holder (1):4.6.1 The auxiliary and working electrodes 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 electrod

26、e and a TFE-fluorocarbon gasket. (Toomuch pressure may cause shielding of the electrode 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 leng

27、thof 9.5-mm diameter rod stock. Each electrode is drilled,tapped, 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 whi

30、2.1 Two platinum auxiliary electrodes are prepared fromhigh-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

31、be utilized because of theincreased surface area. This may 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

32、acetate and electrolyzingat a current density of 40 to 50 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

33、and stored in distilledwater until ready for use. Since 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

34、may contaminatesubsequent experiments. This contamination 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 t

35、ype ofelectrode is durable, reliable, and commercially available.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 combin

36、ations a differentreference electrode may be preferred in 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

37、Procedure5.1 Prepare 1 L of 1.0 N H2SO4from A.C.S. reagent gradeacid and distilled water, for example, by using 27.8 mLof 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 te

38、st cell and temporarilyclose the center opening with a 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 solu

39、tion-wet (not greased)stopcock can be used in the salt 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 convenie

40、nt means.5.4 Reduce oxygen levels in solution prior to 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

41、with 240-grit SiC paper, wet polish with600-grit SiC paper 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

42、 dimensionsto the nearest 0.01 mm, subtracting the area 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 gas

43、ket is properly compressed.5.8 Degrease the specimen just 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

44、 open-circuit specimen potential, that is, thecorrosion 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 specimenimmers

45、ion, beginning at the corrosion potential (Ecorr) forpotentiodynamic 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 potentiostat

46、icpotential step rate of 50 mV every 5 min, recording the 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

47、continuously with change in potential from the corro-sion potential to + 1.6 V SCE.5.12 Plot anodic polarization data on semilogarithmic paperin accordance with Practice G3, (potential-ordinate, currentdensity-abscissa). If a potentiostat with a logarithmic converteris used, this plot can be produce

48、d directly during the measure-ment.6. Standard Reference 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 sh

49、owa range of acceptable current density values at each 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.
