Scope

1.1 This standard ( Part 2 ) describes a procedure by which the copper sulphate-sulphuric acid test is to be conducted to determine the susceptibility of austenitic stainless steels to intergranular attack. 1.2 This method is applicable only to austenitic stainless steel supplied in the form of cast rolled or forged products and tubes, and intended to be used in mildly oxidizing media. 1.2.1 The presence or absence of intergranular corrosion in these tests is not necessarily a measure of the performance of the material in other corrosive media. The tests do not provide a basis for predicting the resistance to other forms of corrosion, such as general corrosion, pitting or stress corrosion cracking.
