Corrosion of metals and alloys - Aqueous corrosion testing of zirconium alloys for use in nuclear power reactors (ISO 10270:1995, including Cor 1:1997)

Specifies methods for the determination of mass gain and for the surface inspection of products of zirconium and its alloys when corrosion tested in water at 360 °C or in steam at or above 400 °C. Applicable to wrought products, castings and powder metallurgical products.

Korrosion von Metallen und Legierungen - Korrosionsprüfung in wässrigen Lösungen für in Kernreaktoren angewendete Zirkoniumlegierungen (ISO 10270:1995, Cor 1:1997 einschließlich)

Diese Internationale Norm legt fest:
a)   die Bestimmung der Massezunahme;
b)   die Untersuchung der Oberflächen von Produkten aus Zirkonium und Zirkoniumlegierungen nach einer Korrosionsprüfung in Wasser bei 360 °C oder in Dampf bei oder über 400 °C;
c)   dass die Prüfungen in Dampf unter einem Druck von 10,3 MPa (1 500 psi) durchzuführen sind.
Diese Internationale Norm ist auf warm verformte Produkte, Gussteile, pulvermetallurgische Produkte und Schweißgut anwendbar.
Das beschriebene Verfahren wurde bereits vielfach zur Entwicklung neuer Legierungen und Wärmebehand¬lungsverfahren sowie zur Bewertung von Schweißverfahren genutzt und sollte nicht nur zur Beurteilung des Betriebsverhaltens angewendet werden, sondern stattdessen in seiner Gesamtheit, in dem Umfang, der zur Abnahmeprüfung des jeweiligen Produkts festgelegt ist.

Corrosion des métaux et alliages - Essais de corrosion aqueuse des alliages de zirconium utilisés dans les réacteurs nucléaires (ISO 10270:1995, Cor 1:1997 inclus)

La présente Norme internationale prescrit a) la détermination du gain en masse; b) le contrôle superficiel des produits en zirconium et en alliages de zirconium après essai de corrosion dans l'eau à 360°C et dans la vapeur à 400°C ou plus; c) que les essais à la vapeur doivent être réalisés à 10,3 MPa (1 500 psi). La présente Norme internationale est applicable aux produits corroyés, moulés, aux produits de la métallurgie des poudres et aux métaux d'apport pour le soudage. La méthode a beaucoup servi à mettre au point de nouveaux alliages et de nouvelles techniques de traitement thermique et à évaluer les techniques de soudage, et devrait être utilisée dans sa totalité comme moyen de réception des produits plutôt que comme moyen d'évaluation de leurs propriétés en service.

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. Esch 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.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard ISO 10270 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISOnC 156, Corrosion of metals and alloys.
