Scope and Methodology
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Sample Preparation | The process begins with the careful selection of samples, followed by grinding and polishing to achieve a mirror-like finish. An etchant is then applied to reveal the microstructure details. |
| Microscopy Techniques | The prepared samples are examined using both optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy for detailed analysis of grain size, phase distribution, and other critical features. |
| Data Analysis | The data collected from the microscopes is analyzed to ensure that all nickel alloys meet the specified requirements as outlined in ISO 17782. Any deviations are documented for further action. |
| Reporting | A detailed report is prepared, summarizing the findings and any discrepancies noted during the examination. This report serves as a valuable resource for quality control and compliance teams. |
