Space product assurance - Material selection for controlling stress-corrosion cracking
This European Standard sets forth the criteria to be used in the selection of materials for spacecraft and associated equipment and facilities so that failure resulting from stress-corrosion is prevented.
Three categories of materials are listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3 of this Standard. They represent metal alloys with a high, moderate and low resistance to stress-corrosion cracking.
The stress-corrosion susceptibility of alloys included in this Standard was determined at ambient temperature
- by means of laboratory tests in which specimens were either sprayed with salt water or periodically immersed and withdrawn;
- by exposing specimens in sea coast or mild industrial environments;
- by subjecting fabricated hardware to service conditions.
Use of the criteria established herein should, therefore, be limited to designs for service involving similar exposure conditions.
Weldments present a special problem in designing for resistance to stress-corrosion cracking. In addition to the susceptibility of the parent metals, it is also necessary to consider the filler metal and the microstructural effects of heat introduced by the welding operations and subsequent heat treatments. Because of the additional variables that shall be considered, susceptibility data are not as extensive for weldments as for alloys in mill form. Design criteria for weldments in this Standard are limited to aluminium alloys, selected stainless steels in the 300 series and other specific alloys listed in Table 1.
This Standard is intended to provide general criteria to be used in designing for resistance to stress-corrosion cracking. Specific test data and other detailed information are not included.
Raumfahrtproduktsicherung - Kriterien für die Werkstoffwahl zur Vermeidung von Spannungsrisskorrosion
Assurance produit des projets spatiaux - Sélection des matériaux en vue d'éviter leur fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte
La présente Norme européenne présente les critères à utiliser pour permettre de sélectionner les matériaux destinés aux satellites, aux équipements et aux installations associés afin d'éviter toute défaillance due à la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte.
Dans les Tableaux 1, 2 et 3 de la présente norme, trois catégories de matériaux sont présentées. Ces matériaux sont des alliages de métaux possédant une résistance à la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte élevée, moyenne et faible.
La susceptibilité des alliages à la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte dont il est question dans la présente norme a été déterminée à température ambiante par les procédés ci-dessous :
¾ en effectuant des essais en laboratoire : les éprouvettes ont soit été vaporisées d'eau salée, soit régulièrement immergées dans l'eau salée puis retirées ;
¾ en exposant les éprouvettes près d'un littoral ou dans des environnements industriels humides ;
¾ en soumettant le matériel fabriqué aux conditions d'utilisation.
L'utilisation des critères établis dans la présente norme doit, par conséquent, être limitée aux conceptions d'équipements devant fonctionner dans des conditions d'exposition similaires.
Les assemblages soudés présentent un problème particulier dans leur conception quant à la résistance à la fissuration par corrosion sous contrainte. Outre la susceptibilité des métaux de base, il faut également tenir compte du métal d'apport et des effets de la chaleur sur la microstructure entraînés par les opérations de soudage et par les traitements thermiques consécutifs. Du fait des variables supplémentaires à prendre en compte, les données de susceptibilité ne sont pas aussi importantes pour les assemblages soudés que pour les alliages corroyés.

EN 14101:2001 is a standard published by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). Its full title is "Space product assurance - Material selection for controlling stress-corrosion cracking". This standard covers: This European Standard sets forth the criteria to be used in the selection of materials for spacecraft and associated equipment and facilities so that failure resulting from stress-corrosion is prevented. Three categories of materials are listed in Tables 1, 2 and 3 of this Standard. They represent metal alloys with a high, moderate and low resistance to stress-corrosion cracking.
