Corrosion of metals and alloys — Stress corrosion testing — Part 6: Preparation and use of pre-cracked specimens for tests under constant load or constant displacement

Corrosion des métaux et alliages — Essais de corrosion sous contrainte — Partie 6: Préparation et utilisation des éprouvettes préfissurées pour essais sous charge constante ou sous déplacement constant

Abstract / scope

ISO 7539-6:2002 covers procedures for designing, preparing and using pre-cracked specimens for investigating susceptibility to stress corrosion. It gives recommendations for the design, preparation and use of pre-cracked specimens for investigating susceptibility to stress corrosion.

The term "metal" as used in this part of ISO 7539 includes alloys.

Because of the need to confine plasticity at the crack tip, pre-cracked specimens are not suitable for the evaluation of thin products such as sheet or wire and are generally used for thicker products including plate bar and forgings. They can also be used for parts joined by welding.
