ActiveNon-destructive testing of welds—Ultrasonic testing—Testing of welds in austenitic steels and nickel-based alloys
焊缝无损检测 超声检测 奥氏体钢和镍基合金焊缝检测
Application Summary AI generated
This standard specifies the ultrasonic testing procedures for detecting internal discontinuities in welds made of austenitic steels and nickel-based alloys. It is applied in industries such as petrochemical, power generation, and pressure vessel manufacturing, where these materials are common due to their corrosion resistance. The standard addresses the unique challenges of coarse-grained microstructures that cause sound attenuation and scattering, providing specific techniques for reliable defect detection in these weld types.
