This document specifies: a) the determination of mass gain; b) the surface inspection of products of zirconium and its alloys when corrosion is tested in water at 360 °C or in steam at or above 400 °C; c) the performance of tests in steam at 10,3 MPa. This document is applicable to wrought products, castings, powder metallurgy products and weld metals. This method has been widely used in the development of new alloys, heat-treating practices and for the evaluation of welding techniques. It is applicable for use in its entirety to the extent specified for a product acceptance test, rather than merely a means of assessing performance in service.
