Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 13520:2015(E)
Determination of ferrite content in austenitic stainless
steel castings
1 Scope
Procedures are covered for estimating ferrite content in certain grades of austenitic iron-chromium-
nickel alloy castings that have compositions balanced to create the formation of ferrite as a second
phase in amounts controlled within specified limits. Methods are described for estimating ferrite
content by chemical, magnetic and metallographic means.
2 Normative references
The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are
indispensable for its application. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated
references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
ISO 4990, Steel castings — General technical delivery requirements
ISO 9042, Steels — Manual point counting method for statistically estimating the volume fraction of a
constituent with a point grid
ASTM A799, Standard Practice for Steel Castings, Stainless, Instrument Calibration, for Estimating
Ferrite Content

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
ferrite
ferromagnetic, body-centred cubic microstructural constituent of variable chemical composition in
iron-chromium-nickel alloys
Note 1 to entry: Ferrite includes both delta and alpha species.
3.2
ferrite content
proportion of total volume of an iron-chromium-nickel alloy present as the ferrite phase
3.3
ferrite percentage
ferrite content expressed as a volume percent
4 Significance effects of ferrite content
The tensile and impact properties, the weldability, and the corrosion resistance of iron-chromium-
nickel alloy castings may be influenced beneficially or detrimentally by the ratio of the amount of ferrite
to the amount of austenite in the microstructure. The ferrite content may be limited by purchase order
requirements or by the design construction codes governing the equipment in which castings will be
used. The quantity of ferrite in the structure is fundamentally a function of the chemical composition
of the alloy and its thermal history. Because of segregation, the chemical composition and, therefore,
the ferrite content, may differ from point to point on a casting. Determination of the ferrite content by
ISO 13520:2015(E)
any of the procedures described in Clause 5 is subject to varying degrees of imprecision which shall
be recognized in setting realistic limits on the range of ferrite content specified. Sources of error are
described in 5.1 to 5.3.
5 Methods of determination of ferrite content
5.1 Chemical composition method
Deviations from the actual content of each element present in an alloy because of chemical analysis
variance, although possibly minor in each case, can result in substantial difference in the ratio of total
ferrite-promoting to total austenite-promoting elements. Therefore the precision of the ferrite content
estimated from chemical composition depends on the accuracy of the chemical analysis procedure.
The estimation of ferrite percent by means of the chemical composition offers the most useful and most
common method of ferrite control during melting of the metal.
5.2 Magnetic response method
Phases other than ferrite and austenite may be formed at ce
