This standard BS EN ISO 13520:2023 Determination of ferrite content in austenitic stainless steel castings is classified in these ICS categories:
77.140.80 Iron and steel castings
Procedures are covered for estimating ferrite content in certain grades of austenitic iron-chromium-nickel alloy castings that have compositions balanced to create the formation of ferrite as a second phase in amounts controlled within specified limits. Methods are described for estimating ferrite content by chemical, magnetic and metallographic means.
