Introduction On a section of metal, a grain is that area within the boundary of a crystal. For the purpose of applying the methods described in this International Standard, a crystal and i

20、ts twin bands are considered as one grain. Sub-grains, minor constituent phases, inclusions and additives are not considered in the estimation of the grain size. It is important, in using these methods, to recognize that the estimation of grain size is not a precise measurement, A metal structure is

21、 an aggregate of three-dimensional crystals of varying sizes and shapes. Even if all these crystals were identical in size and shape, the grain cross-sections produced by a random plane (surface of observation) through such a structure would have a distribution of areas varying from a maximum value

22、to zero, depending upon where the plane cuts each individual crystal. Clearly, no two fields of observation can be exactly the same. Practical reasons limit the number of grains that can reasonably be counted to less than the number statistically desirable. BSI BS*EN*ISO 2624 75 Lb24bb 0494860 LTL O

24、nification Copper and copper alloys - Estimation of average grain size 1 Scope Thi International Standard specifies three procedures for estimating, and niles for expressing, the average grain size of copper and copper alloys consisting principally of a single phase. The respective procedures are te

25、rmed the comparison procedure, the intercept procedure and the planimetric pro- cedure. The comparison procedure (comparing the specimen with a standard chart) is most convenient and is sufficiently accurate for most commercial purposes. Higher degreees of accuracy in estimating grain size are ob- t

26、ainable by using the intercept (Heyn) or planimetric (Jeffries) procedures. In cases of dispute, it is recommended that the use of one of these procedures be agreed between the parties. For material with non-equiaxial structures it is recommended that the intercept procedure be used. 2 Symbols and d

27、esignations 3 Test samples 3.1 Grain size estimations shall be made on three or more representative fields of each sample section. In known equiaxial structures only a representative section need be taken on the sample. For non-equiaxial or unknown structures three sec- tions must be prepared, each

28、at right angles to the other. 3.2 The specimen shall be carefully prepared to reveal the grain boundaries using a contrast etch to match the standard charts. 4 Procedures 4.1 Comparison procedure The estimation of grain size is made by direct comparison of a projected image of a photomicrograph of a

29、 representative field of the test specimen, either with the photomicrographs of the standard grain size series or with suitable reproductions of them (for standard grain size charts, see annex A); when a pro- jection microscope is not available a bench microscope may be used. It is recommended that,

30、 to facilitate comparison, mechanical arrangements be made to permit bringing the stan- dard photomicrographs successively into juxtaposition with the projected image. 4.2 Intercept procedure 4.2.1 The grain size is estimated by counting, on the ground glass screen of a projection microscope, on the

31、 image in a bench microscope fitted with a graticule, on a photo- micrograph of a representative field of the specimen, or on the specimen itself, the number of grains intercepted by one or more straight lines sufficiently long to yield at least 10 inter- cepts per line and at least 50 intercepts fo

32、r all lines for normal purposes and at least 200 intercepts for referee purposes. Grains touched by the end of the line count only as half grains. The length of the line or lines in millimetres at the surface of the section, divided by the number of grains intersected by it, gives the average interc

33、ept length 1. For practical purposes, the ave- rage intercept length, I, may be regarded as equal to the ave- rage grain diameter dit. 4.2.2 For non-equiaxial structures, measurements should be made on longitudinal and transverse sections along lines that lie in all three principal directions of the

34、 specimen. For each direc- tion, the average grain “diameters“ should be calculated as in 4.2.1. 1) multiplied by the factor 1.13. To achieve compatibility with estimations of grain “diameter“ made by the planimetric or comparison procedure, the Intercept length, 1, should be BSI BS*EN*ISO 2624 75 L

37、0,030 4.3 Planimetric procedure 4.3.1 In the planimetric procedure, a circle or rectangle of known area (usually 5 o00 mm2 to simplify the calculation) is inscribed on a photomicrograph or on the ground glass screen of the projection microscope. A magnification should be selected which will give at

38、least 50 grains for normal purposes and 200 grains for referee purposes in the field to be counted. When the image is focused properly, the number of grains within this area should be counted. The sum of all the grains included completely within the known area plus one half the number of grains inte

39、rsected by the circumference of the area should be taken as giving the number of equivalent whole grains, measured at the magnifi- cation used, within the area. If this number is multiplied by Jeffries multiplier, f, in the second column of table 1 opposite the appropriate magnification, the product

40、 will be the number of grains per square millimetre, m. 4.3.2 The average grain “diameter“ in millimetres, d, for each field may then be calculated from the formula d = 1/6 Table 1 - Jeffries multipliers for area of 5 o00 mm2 Jeffries multiplier, J, to obtain grains per mm2 Magnification used, y 1 1

42、d grain size for each field shall be reported as that of the nearest standard grain size chart (see annex A). Alterna- tively, where a single figure is required the median of these results shall be reported. The charts are reproduced at a magnification of x 75, which is normally suitable for copper

43、and copper alloys. If it is necessary to use other magnifications, the appropriate grain size from table 2 shall be reported. The values shown in this table have been rounded off to approximate commercial usage. Table 2 may be used for comparisons at other magnifications by using the appropriate fac

44、tor; for example, at x 250 divide by 10 the grain size indicated at x 25, or at x 400 divide by 2 the grain size indicated at x 200. Thus at x 250, a grain size which will match the same standard photograph of 0,050 rnm at x 75 will be a 0,015 mm grain size (0,150 at x 25 divided by 10). It should b

45、e appreciated that it is not uncommon for operators to differ by one step in the charts when estimating the grain size of a given field. 5.2 Intercept or planimetric procedures In equiaxial material, the results for each of the three or more representative fields on which estimations have been made

46、shall be reported. Alternatively, where a single figure is.required the median of these results shall be reported. In non-equiaxial material, when the intercept procedure should be used, the results for each of the three directions shall be reported either for individual fields or as the correspondi

47、ng me- dian for each direction. 5.3 Mixed grain sizes These are sometimes encountered, for example in hotworked metal. These shall be expressed by giving the estimated area percentages occupied by the two sizes or the two ranges of sizes, by using the comparison method. Table 2 - Relationships betwe
