Corrosion of metals and alloys - Stress corrosion testing - Part 2: Preparation and use of bent-beam specimen (ISO 7539-2:1989)

Covers procedures for designing, preparing and using bent-beam test specimens. These specimens may be used to test a variety of product forms (i. e. sheet, plate, flat extruded material, wire or rod). They are espesially suitable for multiple testing and for atmospheric stress corrosion tests; they are usually tested under nominally constant strain conditions. Bent-beam specimens made from high strength materials may fracture rapidly and can be dangerous.

Korrosion der Metalle und Legierungen - Prüfung der Spannungsrißkorrosion - Teil 2: Vorbereitung und Anwendung von Biegeproben (ISO 7539-2:1989)

Der vorliegende Teil von ISO 7539 behandelt Verfahren zur Gestaltung, Vorbereitung und Anwendung von Biegeproben zur Untersuchung der Anfälligkeit eines Metalles für Spannungsrißkorrosion. In diesem Teil von ISO 7539 werden mit der Benennung "Metall" auch Legierungen erfaßt. Biegeproben können zum Prüfen einer Vielzahl von Erzeugnisformen verwendet werden. Grundsätzlich werden sie für Band, Blech oder flaches, stanggepreßtes Material verwendet, aus welchem leicht flache Proben mit rechteckigem Querschnitt zu fertigen sind.

Corrosion des métaux et alliages - Essais de corrosion sous contrainte - Partie 2: Préparation et utilisation des éprouvettes pour essais en flexion (ISO 7539-2:1989)

1.1 La présente partie de l'ISO 7539 couvre les procédures de définition, de préparation et d'utilisation d'éprouvettes pour essais en flexion, servant à évaluer la sensibilité d'un métal à la corrosion sous contrainte. Pour les besoins de la présente partie de l'ISO 7539, le terme « métal » inclut également les alliages. 1.2 Les éprouvettes pour essais en flexion peuvent être utilisées pour tester une multitude de formes de produits. Elles sont principalement utilisées pour les tôles, plaques ou matériaux profilés, qui fournissent facilement des éprouvettes plates de section rectangulaire, mais peuvent être employées également pour les matériaux moulés, les fils métalliques ou les barres, sous la forme d'éprouvettes usinées de section circulaire. Elles peuvent aussi être utilisées pour des pièces assemblées par soudage. 1.3 La préparation des éprouvettes et l'appareillage servant à les tester sous contrainte étant simple et peu coûteux, les éprouvettes pour essais en flexion sont tout à fait adaptées aux essais multiples et aux essais atmosphériques sous contrainte. 1.4 Les éprouvettes pour essais en flexion sont normalement testées dans des conditions nominales de déformation constante, mais on peut également les soumettre à des conditions nominales de charge constante. Dans les deux cas, une modification locale de la  244 courbure de l'éprouvette, au moment de la fissuration entraîne une variation des conditions pendant la propagation de la fissure. La « contrainte d'essai » s'entend comme la contrainte de traction maximale en début d'essai.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of
national Standards bodies (ISO member bedies). 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, govern-
mental 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 approval before their acceptance as International Standards by
the ISO Council. They are approved in accordance with ISO procedures requiring at
least 75 % approval by the member bodies voting.
International Standard ISO 7539-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 156,
Corrosion of metals and alloys.

Introduction
This part of ISO 7539 is one of a series giving procedures for designing, preparing and
using various forms of test specimen to carry out tests to establish a metals resistance
to stress corrosion.
Esch of the Standards in the series needs to be read in association with ISO 7539-1.
This helps in the choice of an appropriate test procedure to suit particular
circumstances as well as giving guidance towards assessing the significance of the
results of the tests.
