Additive manufacturing - Non-destructive testing and evaluation - Guideline for dimensional measurements based on cone beam X-ray Computed Tomography (ISO/ASTM DIS 52971:2026)

This document specifies guidelines and recommendations to be followed prior to carrying out dimensional measurements on three-dimensional (3D) volumetric X-ray Computed Tomographic (XCT) images of additive manufacturing (AM) series production parts. It is applicable to cone beam XCT systems. However, these guidelines and recommendations can easily be transposed to fan beam XCT systems. The process to be followed prior to performing dimensional measurement on 3D volumetric XCT images of AM series production parts, in this standard, is divided into two steps: Step 1: Quantification of an XCT system performance, in terms of image quality and basic dimensional measurement accuracy, with a reference object and eventually a Representative Quality Indicators (RQI), with the specific part (part chosen from the AM series production parts) XCT setting under certain environmental conditions. This step leads to the determination of the image quality, the voxel size and the basic dimensional measurement accuracy of an XCT system; Step 2: Validation of the XCT system compliance, in terms of dimensional measurement accuracy, with the specific part, with the chosen XCT setting under the specific environmental conditions. This step leads to a simplified determination of the dimensional measurement uncertainty of each measurand of the specific part. If step 1 does not comply with the set requirements, the XCT system cannot be used for step 2. This document does not claim to provide a definitive method to determine XCT dimensional measurement accuracy, which, given the complexity of an XCT process, is not yet established. For the same reason, it is addressed to qualified XCT operators with the support of metrology experts. This document is dedicated to AM series production parts and its aim is to provide a methodology for controlling the geometric specificities associated with AM (internal shapes, lattice structures). It is applicable on parts that are fabricated by any type of AM categories of processes and material provided the X-ray penetration lengths are sufficient to scan the test part. These prior quantification and validation processes, which allow dimensional measurements to be carry out on 3D volumetric XCT images of AM series production parts, are valid for a specific part geometry in a given material associated with a chosen XCT setting (magnification & XCT acquisition and reconstruction parameters of the specific part) under specific environmental conditions for the measurands specified. The quantification and validation processes are reconsidered when different geometry of the part or material or XCT setting or environmental conditions or measurands are taken into account.

Plastics — Intrinsic biodegradability — Criteria and test methods

This document defines test methods and criteria for distinguishing intrinsically biodegradable plastic materials from those that are persistent. Biodegradability is inferred from biodegradation tests conducted under aerobic conditions, i.e. under the conditions typically found in most natural habitats. Plastics that undergo ultimate biodegradation under aerobic conditions in a manner similar to natural polymer materials are defined as biodegradable plastics. This document describes a method for distinguishing between non-biodegradable plastics, which do not biodegrade even when environmental conditions are favourable for biodegradation (including aerobic conditions), and biodegradable plastics, i.e. those that biodegrade upon contact with active microorganisms when environmental conditions are favourable for biodegradation. The aim is to demonstrate ultimate aerobic biodegradability of plastic materials, i.e. the intrinsic potential for conversion to carbon dioxide, water and biomass by aerobic microorganisms in an oxygen-rich environment, which is representative of most natural environments. The potential for biodegradation should be verified using alternative tests and criteria, if a deposition in a permanent anaerobic environment (e.g. deep subsurface environments, wetlands and swamps, anoxic zones in oceans and lakes) is expected. NOTE Currently, there are no methodologies or criteria available to verify accumulation due to the lack of biodegradation of plastics in such anaerobic habitats. The plastic materials identified as intrinsically biodegradable following this document can be used in the design of products with a high risk of dispersion whenever the use of biodegradable components is searched by the designer. Intrinsically non-biodegradable components are not susceptible to biodegradation and therefore cannot be removed from the environment by the action of micro-organisms. This factor tends to increase the residence time of products in the environment. In addition, their eventual degradation, mainly due to abiotic factors, results in persistent fragments (microplastics). The test scheme described in this document is not specific to any particular application. Rather, it is a framework methodology that can be used in different industries to identify biodegradable plastics that can be used to make different types of products and for different applications. For the characterisation and environmental assessment of products placed on the market containing plastics identified as biodegradable according to this document, reference is made to the specific product standards, where available. This document only deals with the definition of intrinsic biodegradability of plastic materials, without defining the hazard of the products, which requires a specific assessment that is beyond the scope of this document. The rate of biodegradation of a plastic object as a function of environmental conditions cannot be determined from this document. Therefore, this document is not sufficient to carry out an analysis of the ecological risk associated with the dispersal of products, as this requires an assessment of the intrinsic hazard, of the environmental fate, in addition to the assessment of biodegradability. The methodology described in this document does not apply to applications covered by mandatory regulations.

Advanced technical ceramics - Mechanical properties of monolithic ceramics at room temperature - Part 2: Determination of Young's modulus, shear modulus and Poisson's ratio

This part of EN 843 specifies methods for determining the elastic moduli, specifically Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio, of advanced monolithic technical ceramics at room temperature. This European Standard prescribes four alternative methods for determining some or all of these three parameters: A The determination of Young’s modulus by static flexure of a thin beam in three- or four-point flexure. B The determination of Young’s modulus by forced longitudinal resonance, or Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio by forced flexural and torsional resonance, of a thin beam. C The determination of Young’s modulus, shear modulus and Poisson’s ratio from the time-of-flight of an ultrasonic pulse. D The determination of Young’s modulus from the fundamental natural frequency of a struck bar (impulse excitation method). All the test methods assume the use of homogeneous test pieces of linear elastic materials. NOTE 1 Not all ceramic materials are equally and linearly elastic in tension and compression, such as some porous materials and some piezoelectric materials. With the exception of Method C, the test assumes that the test piece has isotropic elastic properties. Method C may be used to determine the degree of anisotropy by testing in different orientations. NOTE 2 An ultrasonic method for dealing with anisotropic materials (ceramic matrix composites) can be found in ENV 14186 (see Bibliography). An alternative to Method D for isotropic materials using disc test pieces is given in Annex A. NOTE 3 At high porosity levels all of the methods except Method C can become inappropriate. The methods are only suitable for a maximum grain size (see EN 623-3), excluding deliberately added whiskers, of less than 10 % of the minimum dimension of the test piece. NOTE 4 The different methods given in this European Standard can produce slightly different results on the same material owing to differences between quasi-isothermal quasi-static an

Welding and allied processes - Symbols for welding - Welded joints (ISO/DIS 2553:2026)

This document defines the rules to be applied for symbolic representation of welded joints on technical drawings. This can include information about the geometry, manufacture, quality and testing of the welds. The principles of this document can also be applied to soldered and brazed joints. It is recognized that there are two different approaches in the global market to designate the arrow side and other side on drawings. In this document: — clauses, tables and figures which carry the suffix letter "A" are applicable only to the symbolic representation system based on a dual reference line; — clauses, tables and figures which carry the suffix letter "B" are applicable only to the symbolic representation system based on a single reference line; — clauses, tables and figures which do not have the suffix letter "A" or "B" are applicable to both systems. The symbols shown in this document can be combined with other symbols used on technical drawings, for example to show surface finish requirements. An alternative designation method is presented which can be used to represent welded joints on drawings by specifying essential design information such as weld dimensions, quality level, etc. The joint preparation and welding process(es) are then determined by the production unit in order to meet the specified requirements. NOTE Examples given in this document, including dimensions, are illustrative only and are intended to demonstrate the proper application of principles.
