Abstract

Among the various test methods for stress corrusiun cracking(SCC) susceptibility evaluatiun, the slow stram rate test(SSHT) method is a rapid and effective nwthod to evaluate the SCC susceptibility of metal in relatively short time. But it is very difficult to analyze the microfracture behaviors in SCC process by using the test(SSRT) method only. Up to now, it has been well known that the acoustic emission(AE) test is the effective technique to monitor the microcrack initiation and propagation in material fracture pmcess. Therefore. in this paper, we analyzed the correlation between the see process and the characteristics of AE signal by using the SSHT and the AE test. According to the test results. the AE signals produced from the material microfracture were clearly depended on the test environment. The AE signal characteristics generated during see process in synthetic sea water were comparatively greater than those. in air. In addition, the SCC behaviors could be definitely evaluated by the amplitude parameter of AE signals.

응력부식균열(SCC) 감수성평가를 위한 여러 시험방법들중 저변형율시험방법은 비교적 \ulcorner은 시간내에 금속재료의 SCC감수성을 평가하기 위한 효과적인 시험방법이다. 그러나 저변형율 시험방법만으로 SCC과정의 미시적 파괴거동ㅇ르 분석하는 것은 매우 어렵다. 종래, 음향방출(AE)시험은 재료의 파괴과정시 미시균열의 개시 및 전파거동을 감시하는데 유효한 기법으로 잘 알려져 있다. 그러므로 본 논문에서는 저변형율시험과 음향방출시험을 이용하여 SCC의 전파과정과 AE신호 특성사이의 상호관계를 분석하였다. 실험결과, 재료의 미시파괴 과정에서 발생하는 AE신호들은 뚜렷히 시험환경에 의존하였으며, 인공해수중에서 SCC과정시 발생된 AE신호 특성은 Air상태 보다 상당히 크게 나타났다. 그리고 SCC거동은 AE신호의 진폭인자로서 명확하게 평가할 수 있다.
