ISO 8407:2021

Corrosion of metals and alloys — Removal of corrosion products from corrosion test specimens

This document specifies procedures for the removal of corrosion products formed on metal and alloy corrosion test specimens during their exposure in corrosive environments. For the purpose of this document, the term “metals” refers to pure metals and alloys.

The specified procedures are designed to remove all corrosion products without significant removal of base metal. This allows an accurate determination of the mass loss of the metal, which occurred during exposure to the corrosive environment.

In some cases, these procedures are also applicable to metal coatings, providing the possible effects from the substrate are considered.
