ASTM E21-17 is used in the Tensile Testing of Metals at Elevated Temperatures. It is used to determine tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and reduction of area of metals. The values stated in imperial units are regarded as standard.

ASTM E21-17 is used in the Tensile Testing of Metals at Elevated Temperatures. It is used to determine tensile strength, yield strength, elongation, and reduction of area of metals. The values stated in imperial units are regarded as standard.
Scope:
ASTM E21-17 covers Elevated Temperature Tension Testing of metals. It is used to determine the ability of metals to withstand tensile forces at higher temperatures. The data can be used to indicate probable behavior under other simple stresses such as compression. However, the principal use of the Elevated Temperature Tension Test is to verify that the tested material is similar to reference material.
Test Procedure:
The specimen has two shoulders and a reduced section between the shoulders. The gage section is part of the reduced section. It is the part that elongates during the test. The cross-sectional area of the reduced section is measured. Gage length is measured and marked. The specimen is cleaned with alcohol. Thermocouples are attached to the specimen to measure temperature. Extensometers are attached to the specimen to measure the extension of the gage section during the test. The specimen is installed on the machine that has a furnace. At elevated temperatures, the specimen is slowly extended until it fractures. During this process, the elongation of the gage section is recorded against the applied force.
Specimen size:
Usually, A tensile specimen has two shoulders and a gage section between them. The shoulders are bigger so they can be easily gripped and the gage section has a smaller cross-section so that deformation and failure can occur in this area.
Data:
1. Tensile strength:
Su = Pmax /A
Su = the tensile strength
Pmax = the maximum load
2. Yield point:
the stress beyond which a material becomes plastic.
YP = PYP /A0
PYP = load at the yield point.
3. Percentage elongation:
The extent to which the test specimen has stretched at failure:
Elongation = ɛ = (ΔL/L0) x 100
ΔL: Change in Length
L0: Initial Length
4. The percentage reduction of area (%RA):
The amount the specimen has necked or reduced in diameter at the point of failure
ASTM E572 test method covers the analysis of stainless and alloy steels by Wavelength Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence Spectrometry (WDXRF). It provides rapid, multi-element determinations with sufficient accuracy to assure product quality.
The ASTM D2674 is a standard test method for the analysis of sulfochromate etches solution used in the surface preparation of aluminum. The ASTM D2674 standard specifies a method for determining the efficacy of an etchant used to prepare the surface of aluminum alloys for subsequent adhesive bonding.
An immunological method for quantization of Hevea Natural Rubber (HNRL) proteins using rabbit anti-HNRL serum. Rabbits immunized with HNRL proteins react to the majority of the proteins present, and their sera have the capability to detect most if not all the proteins in HNRL.
