7、andardization (CEN). EN 1321:1996 was produced as a result of international discussions in which the United Kingdom took an active part. BS EN 1321:1996 supersedes tests detailed in BS 709:1983, BS 4206:1987 and BS 3451:1973 which have been withdrawn by amendment. Cross-reference The British Standar

25、on, with or without etching 3.2 microscopic examination examination by microscope, with a magnification normally within 50 to 500 times, with or without etching 3.3 operator the person who performs the macroscopic and/or microscopic examination 4 Principle Macroscopic and microscopic examination is
26、used to reveal the macroscopic and microscopic features of a welded joint, usually by examination of transverse sections. This is done by visual and/or optical examination of the prepared surface before or after etching. In the case of microscopic examination, higher magnifications are required comp

EN 1321:1996 4 BSI 25 February 2004 Abbreviations for parent metals shall be in accordance with the grouping
28、 systems in EN 288-3 for steels and EN 288-4 for aluminium and its alloys. Grouping systems for other materials are given in CR 12187. The same grouping systems shall also be used for weld metal. The abbreviations for etchants should be taken from CR 12361 whenever applicable. NOTEA trade mark can b

33、mens oriented perpendicular to the weld axis (transverse section) including the weld deposit and heat affected zones on both sides of the weld. The test may also apply to other orientations. The location, orientation and number of test pieces should be as specified in the relevant standards and/or s
34、pecifications or by special agreement. 8 Test procedure 8.1 General The following information shall be given: parent metals and consumables; composition of the etchant; surface finish (see 8.3); etching methods (see 8.4); etching time; additional measures (see 8.6); any additional requirements; the
35、object of the test. 8.2 Test specimen preparation The test specimen shall be prepared for examination by cutting, mounting, grinding and/or polishing and/or etching as appropriate (see CR 12361). The surface to be examined shall not be adversely influenced by these processes. 8.3 Surface finish The
36、requirement for surface finish depends on aspects such as: the type of examination envisaged (macroscopic or microscopic); the type of material; the documentation envisaged (such as photographs). NOTEDetails of the grinding and polishing media and methods of grinding and polishing are given in CR 12
37、361. 8.4 Etching methods The following methods are commonly used: etching by immersing the test specimen in the etchant; etching by swabbing the surface of the test specimen; electrolytic etching. Other methods may be used by agreement between the contracting parties. When etching is completed, the
38、test specimen should be washed and dried. 8.5 Etchants Typical etchants for various parent metals, weld deposits, purposes and types of examination are given in CR 12361. Depending on the information required, the type and concentration of the etchant as well as the etching temperature and time may
39、be varied according to the material and type of examination. For similar joints different etchants may be used. EN 1321:1996 6 BSI 25 February 2004 8.6 Safety measures The following safety measures shall be observed: wear eye or face protection, as appropriate; handle etchants with suitable gloves o
40、r tongs; mixtures shall be made in a fume cupboard or under a fume hood; always pour acid into water and not vice versa; always pour solute into solvent; i.e. the smaller quantity (solute) into the larger quantity (solvent). 9 Examination The prepared surface may be examined before and/or after etch
41、ing, as appropriate, or according to the relevant standards and/or specifications. 10 Designation The examination shall be designated as follows: reference to this standard; the type of examination (macroscopic or microscopic examination); unetched or etched; the object of the test (weld metal and/o
42、r parent metal); welded joints (parent metal left, parent metal right and weld metal); etchant (number of the table in CR 12361. The designation may be given in a full or a shortened version: this is shown in examples 1 and 2. NOTEThe object of the test should be expressed between hyphens. EXAMPLE 1
