Corrosion of metals and alloys - Evaluation of stress corrosion cracking by the drop evaporation test (ISO 15324:2000)

Specifies the procedure for determining the relative resistance of stainless steels and nickel-base alloys to stress corrosion cracking in a sodium chloride drop evaporation system. The method results in a threshold stress to fracture, the magnitude of which can be used to rank the relative performance of different alloys for this environment.

1.2   Das Verfahren liefert einen kritischen Bruchspannungswert, der zur Klassifizierung des relativen Verhaltens unterschiedlicher Legierungen in der für diese Prüfung verwendeten Umgebung dienen kann.

Corrosion des métaux et alliages - Évaluation de la résistance a la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte par essai d'évaporation goutte a goutte (ISO 15324:2000)

1.1 La présente Norme internationale spécifie le mode opératoire permettant de déterminer la résistance relative
des aciers inoxydables et des alliages à base de nickel à la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte dans un système
d'évaporation goutte à goutte de chlorure de sodium.

ISO 15324:2000(E)
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 com-
mittees. 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 liai-
son with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
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.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard ISO 15324 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 156, Corrosion of metals and al-
loys.

Corrosion of metals and alloys — Evaluation of stress corrosion
cracking by the drop evaporation test
1 Scope
1.1 This International Standard specifies the procedure for determining the relative resistance of stainless steels
and nickel-base alloys to stress corrosion cracking in a sodium chloride drop evaporation system.
1.2 The method results in a threshold stress to fracture, the magnitude of which can be used to rank the relative
performance of different alloys for this environment.
2 Normative references
The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. For dated references, subsequent amendments to, or revisions of, any of these publica-
tions do not apply. However, parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investi-
gate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the normative documents indicated below. For undated
references, the latest edition of the normative document referred to applies. Members of ISO and IEC maintain reg-
isters of currently valid International Standards.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this International Standard, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
threshold stress
stress below which no fracture in 500 h is observed (see also 8.8)
3.2
time-to-fracture
elapsed time from start of test until fracture of the specimen
4 Principle
4.1 A dilute salt solution is dripped on to a heated tensile specimen of the material under test which is held horizon-
tally and subjected to a uniaxial load.
4.2 Tests are carried out at different applied stresses and the time to specimen fracture is recorded. A threshold
stress is defined based on the principle of no observed fracture in 500 h.

ISO 15324:2000(E)
4.3 The elevated temperatures, wetting and drying process and associated concentration of salt with the drop
evaporation process represent a potentially severe environmental condition which could induce stress corrosion
cracking in some alloys. As such, it represents a severe test for alloy performance.
4.4 Evaporation of salt solutions leading to salt concentration at elevated temperature is not uncommon in service
and can arise, e.g., in sea water spray situations or as a result of solution leaks dropping on to hot surfaces. However,
the variability of service conditions means that this method is suitable only as a method of ranking performance,
based on the magnitude of the threshold stress, and not as an acceptance test for service application.
5 Apparatus
5.1 System for applying a constant load to a specimen held in a horizontal configuration.
5.2 Equipment for applying an alternating or direct current of up to about thirty amperes current to the
specimen at a voltage of two volts or less.
NOTE The current required will depend on the dimensions of the specimen and the properties of the material.
5.3 A reservoir, (typically 20 l) for the sodium chloride solution connected to a vertical glass tube with internal and
external diameters approximately 0,4 mm and 4 mm respectively. The bottom of the glass tube is held at a distance
10 mm
of approximately above the centre of the specimen (see Figure 1).

The system shall be capable of delivering a controlled flow of solution of 10 drops/min (� 10 %) (see annex A). The
composition of the solution in the reservoir shall be maintained constant.
5.4 A suitable calibrated device for measuring the surface temperature of the specimen. Surface tempera-
ture measurement is important because of the need to ensure that the method of measurement itself does not affect
the temperature. Applicable methods are described in annex B.
5.5 A device for detecting specimen fracture and recording the time to fracture. A microswitch attached to the
specimen mounting and associated with an electric timer is suitable.
