Significance and Use4.1 Corrosion testing by its very nature precludes completestandardization. This standard, rather than a standard

24、izedprocedure, is presented as a guide so that some of the pitfallsof such testing may be avoided.4.2 Experience has shown that all metals and alloys do notrespond alike to the many factors that affect corrosion and thataccelerated corrosion tests give indicative results only, or mayeven be entirely

25、 misleading. It is impractical to propose aninflexible standard laboratory corrosion testing procedure forgeneral use, except for material qualification tests wherestandardization is required. One purpose for this guide is topromote better correlation of results in the future and thereduction of con

26、flicting reports through a more detailed record-ing of meaningful factors and conditions.4.3 In designing any corrosion test, consideration should begiven to the various factors discussed in this guide, becausethese factors have been found to affect the results obtained.5. Factors Affecting Corrosio

27、n Behavior5.1 The methods and procedures described herein representthe best current practices for conducting laboratory immersioncorrosion tests as developed by corrosion specialists in theprocess industries. For proper interpretation of the resultsobtained, the specific influence of one or more of

28、the followingvariables should be considered.5.1.1 Metal specimens immersed in a specific hot liquidmay not corrode at the same rate or in the same manner as inequipment where the metal acts as a heat transfer medium inheating or cooling the liquid. If the influence of heat transfereffects is specifi

29、cally of interest, specialized procedures (inwhich the corrosion specimen serves as a heat transfer agent)shall be employed.5.1.2 In laboratory immersion tests, the motion of theenvironment relative to the specimens will normally be pro-vided by convection currents, gas sparging, or boiling. If thes

30、pecific effects of fluid flow are to be studied, special tech-niques shall be employed to create and control the relativemotion between the environment and the test specimens. Thismay be accomplished by either moving the environment asthrough a tube or mechanical stirrer or by moving the speci-mens

31、as by rotation.5.1.3 The behavior of certain metals and alloys may beprofoundly influenced by the presence of dissolved oxygen. Ifthis is a factor to be considered in a specific test, the solutionshould be air saturated at 1 atm or de-aerated, as appropriate.5.1.4 In some cases, the rate of corrosio

32、n may be governedby other minor constituents in the solution, in which case theywill have to be continually or intermittently replenished bychanging the solution in the test.5.1.5 Corrosion products may have undesirable effects on achemical product. The amount of possible contamination cansometimes

33、be estimated from the loss in mass of the specimenor from the changes in the chemical composition of the testenvironment. This is discussed in more detail in 9.8.3.5.1.6 Corrosion products from the specimen may influencethe corrosion rate of the metal itself or of different metalsexposed at the same

34、 time. For example, the accumulation ofcupric ions in the testing of copper alloys in intermediatestrengths of sulfuric acid will accelerate the corrosion ofcopper alloys, as compared to the rates that would be obtainedif the corrosion products were continually removed. It may benecessary to expose

35、only alloys of the same general type in thesame testing apparatus unless it is known that no interactionswill occur.5.1.7 Specimen corrosion testing is frequently designed toinvestigate general corrosion only. There are a number of other3Available from International Organization for Standardization

37、rosion may be investigated by specialdevices that couple one specimen to another in electricalcontact. The behavior of the specimens in this galvanic coupleis compared with that of insulated specimens exposed on thesame holder. It should be observed, however, that galvaniccorrosion can be greatly af

38、fected by the area ratios of therespective metals, the separation between the metals, and theconductivity of the electrolyte. The coupling of corrosionspecimens then yields only qualitative results, as a particularspecimen reflects only the relationship between these twometals at the particular area

39、 ratio involved. Galvanic corrosiontesting is further discussed in ASTM Guide G71, ASTM GuideG82, and ASTM Practice G116.5.1.7.2 Crevice corrosion or concentration cell corrosionmay occur where the metal surface is partially blocked fromthe corroding liquid as under a spacer or supporting hook. It i

40、snecessary to evaluate this localized corrosion separately fromthe overall mass loss. Crevice corrosion testing is furtherdiscussed in ASTM Test Methods G48 and ASTM Guide G78.5.1.7.3 Selective corrosion at the grain boundaries (forexample, intergranular corrosion of sensitized austenitic stain-less

41、 steels) will not be readily observable in mass lossmeasurements unless the attack is severe enough to cause graindropping, and often requires microscopic examination of thespecimens after exposure. This type of corrosion may alsoresult in loss of strength or ductility of materials. Such lossescan b

42、e evaluated by mechanical property determinations beforeand after exposure to the test environment. Testing for selectivecorrosion is further discussed inASTM PracticesA262,ASTMTest Methods G28, G34, G66, G67, G108, G110, and ASTMGuide G112 and ISO 3651-1, ISO 3651-2, ISO 9400,ISO 11846, and ISO 118

43、81.5.1.7.4 Dealloying or “parting” corrosion is a condition inwhich one constituent is selectively removed from an alloy, asin the dezincification of brass or the graphitization of cast iron.Close attention and a more sophisticated evaluation than asimple mass loss measurement are required to detect

44、 thisphenomenon. Dealloying testing is further discussed inISO 6509.5.1.7.5 Certain metals and alloys are subject to a highlylocalized type of attack called pitting corrosion. This cannot beevaluated by mass loss alone. Pitting is a statistical phenom-enon and the incidence of pitting may be directl

45、y related to thearea of metal exposed. For example, a small specimen is not asprone to exhibit pitting as a large one and it is possible to missthe phenomenon altogether in the corrosion testing of certainalloys, such as the AISI Type 300 series stainless steels inchloride-containing environments. P

46、itting testing is furtherdiscussed inASTM Guide G46,ASTM Test Methods G48, andISO 8993, ISO 8994, and ISO 11463.5.1.7.6 Most metals and alloys are subject to environmen-tally assisted cracking under some circumstances. This crack-ing occurs under conditions of applied or residual tensile stress,and

47、it may or may not be visible to the unaided eye or uponcasual inspection. A metallographic examination may confirmthe presence of environmentally assisted cracking. This usuallyoccurs with no significant loss in mass of the test specimen,although certain refractory metals are an exception to theseob

48、servations. Generally, if cracking is observed on the speci-men, it can be taken as positive indication of susceptibility,whereas failure to exhibit this phenomenon means that it didnot occur under the duration and specific conditions of the test.Separate and special techniques are employed for the

49、specificevaluation of the susceptibility of metals and alloys to envi-ronmentally assisted cracking. Multiple standards from manydifferent organizations are available to describe stress-corrosion cracking tests.5.2 The use of welded specimens is sometimes desirable,because some welds may be cathodic or anodic to the parentmetal and may affect the corrosion rate.5.2.1 The heat-affected zone is also of importance butshould be studied separately because welds on test specimensmay not adequately reproduce heat input or size effects offull-size vessels.5.2.
