1、Designation:F283211Standard Guide forAccelerated Corrosion Testing for Mechanical Fasteners1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2832;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number
2、in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This guide covers test procedures for performing accel-erated tests to evaluate relative corrosion resistance of variouscoatings applied to mechan
3、ical fasteners.Corrosion mecha-nisms such as general and crevice corrosion may be evaluatedwith this method.Test duration may be selected to achieve anydesired level of corrosion exposure and provides a frame ofreference to determine relative coating resistance to corrosion.Fasteners tightened to a
4、desired tension and subjected to thistest procedure may be evaluated to simulate a variety of serviceconditions.Without large amounts of accumulated field results,it is difficult to relate test duration or the number of test cyclesto actual service life for a given application.1.2 This standard is n
