ASTM E1086 Standard Test Method for Analysis of Austenitic Stainless Steel by Spark Atomic Emission Spectrometer

EUROLAB laboratory provides testing and compliance services within the scope of ASTM E1086 standard. This test method covers the analysis of austenitic stainless steel by spark atomic emission vacuum spectrometry for elements in the ranges shown.

This test method is designed for routine analysis of cold cast discs or inspection testing of stainless steel specimens with a flat surface of at least 13 mm (0,5 inch) in diameter. The samples should be large enough to prevent overheating during discharge and have a similar metallurgical condition and composition as the reference materials.

One or more of the reference materials should be very close to the composition of the sample. The technique of analyzing reference materials with unknowns and performing specified mathematical corrections can also be used to correct for interference effects and compensate for errors due to instrument deviation.

A variety of such systems are widely used. Any of these that will achieve analytical accuracy equivalent to that reported for this test method is acceptable.

This standard does not purport to address all, if any, safety concerns associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
