EN 16602-70-71:2016 (E ) 8 3 Terms, definitions and abbreviated terms 3.1 Terms from other standards a. For the purpose of this Standard, the terms and definitions from ECSS-S-ST-00-01 apply, in particular for the following terms: 1. assembly 2. component 3. corrosion
4. lot 5. material 6. part 7. process 8. relifing 9. repair b. For the purpose of this Standard, the terms and definitions from ECSS-E-ST-32 apply, in particular for the following terms: 1. A-basis design allowable (A-value) 2. B-basis design allowable (B-value) 3.2 Terms specific to the present standard 3.2.1. plate form of material having a thickness of >6 mm 3.2.2. sheet form of material having a thickness >0,2 mm and <6 mm 3.2.3. foil form of material having a thickness <0,2 mm SIST EN 16602-70-71:2016



EN 16602-70-71:2016 (E ) 9 3.2.4. thick coatings coating with such a thickness that the properties of the substrate do not significantly influence the coating properties NOTE A thick homogeneous coating can be as such treated as if it were effectively a bulk material. The thickness is generally above approximately 125 µm. 3.2.5. debubbling removal of bubbles performed by low pressure process between the coating line and the coating stand NOTE The pressure can be high enough not to cause boiling. The low-pressure causes the bubbles to expand and thus rise faster. 3.2.6. unstabilized stainless steel steels from the 300 series which do not contain Titanium or Niobium as a stabilizing element against the formation of iron-carbides NOTE The iron-carbide formation is also called sensitization and occurs during prolonged heating at temperatures above 370 °C. Iron-carbide formation can also be avoided using lower carbon grades. 3.2.7. exfoliation corrosion that proceeds along planes parallel to the surface, generally at grain boundaries, forming corrosion products that create a wedging stress, giving rise to a layered appearance NOTE This form of corrosion is associated with a marked directionality of the grain structure. Applied stresses are not necessary for exfoliation to occur. However, in alloys susceptible to stress corrosion cracking, the corrosion product wedging action undoubtedly contributes to the propagation of the exfoliation attack. It is important to note that some alloys not susceptible to stress corrosion cracking can suffer exfoliation corrosion. However, if the grain structure is equiaxed, exfoliation corrosion does not usually occur. 3.3 Abbreviated terms For the purpose of this Standard, the abbreviated terms from ECSS-S-ST-00-01 and the following apply: Abbreviation Meaning ATOX atomic oxygen EDM electro discharge machining SIST EN 16602-70-71:2016
