Salt spray test is an environmental test that mainly uses the artificial simulated salt spray environmental conditions created by salt spray test equipment to evaluate the corrosion resistance of products or metal materials.

This test is applicable to comparing the salt spray corrosion resistance of samples with similar structure.
This test is also applicable to evaluate the quality and uniformity of protective coatings.
Salt spray test can be divided into two categories, one is natural environment exposure test, the other is artificial accelerated simulated salt spray environment test. Artificial simulated salt spray environment test is to use a test equipment with a certain volume space - salt spray test chamber to create a salt spray environment by artificial method in its volume space to evaluate the salt spray corrosion resistance and quality of products.
Salt spray test mainly includes the following tests:
Salt spray test; Acid salt spray test; Copper ion accelerated salt spray experiment; Cyclic salt spray test; Water mist experiment; 100% relative humidity resistance test;
Artificial simulated salt spray test includes:;Neutral salt spray test, acetate spray test, copper salt accelerated acetate spray test, alternating salt spray test.
(1)Neutral salt spray test (NSS test)It is the earliest and most widely used accelerated corrosion test method. It uses 5% NaCl solution, and the pH of the solution is in neutral range (6~7) as a spray solution. The test temperature is 35 ℃, and the sedimentation rate of salt spray is required to be 1 ~ 2ml / 80cm2 H.
(2)Acetate spray test (ASS test)It is developed on the basis of neutral salt spray test. It is to add some glacial acetic acid to 5% sodium chloride solution to reduce the pH value of the solution to about 3, turn the solution into acid, and finally form a salt mist from neutral salt mist to acid. Its corrosion rate is about 3 times faster than that of NSS test.
(3)Copper salt accelerated acetate spray test (CASS test))It is a rapid salt spray corrosion test developed recently abroad. The test temperature is 50 ℃, and a small amount of copper salt copper chloride is added to the salt solution to strongly induce corrosion. Its corrosion rate is about 8 times that of NSS test.
(4)Alternating salt spray testIt is a comprehensive salt spray test, which is actually a neutral salt spray test plus constant damp heat test. It is mainly used for cavity type complete machine products. Through the penetration of humid environment, salt spray corrosion occurs not only on the surface of the product, but also inside the product. It is to alternately convert the product under salt fog and humid and hot environmental conditions, and finally check whether the electrical and mechanical properties of the whole product have changed.
The following limitations should be considered when using:
1. This test is not suitable for general salt spray corrosion test;
2. This test is also not applicable to the evaluation of a single test sample used in saline atmosphere.
For equipment and parts, the test provides test conditions more in line with the actual situation and the evaluation method of a single test sample. However, if in some cases, in order to ensure quality, relevant specifications require individual samples to adopt this test method, the samples shall be tested as an integral part of the whole assembly or equipment together with the actual protective performance equipment.
The concentration of the salt solution used for the test is 5%, the test temperature is 35 ℃, and the pH value of the salt solution is between 6.5-7.2.
During the test, each test sample shall not contact or contact with other metal parts, so the sample shall be placed to eliminate the influence between parts.
Salt spray conditions shall be maintained in all exposed areas. Use vessels with an area of 80cm2 to continuously collect atomized deposition solution at any point in the exposed area for at least 16 hours, and the average collection amount per hour shall be between 1ml-2ml. At least two collection vessels shall be used. The position of the vessel shall not be covered by the sample to avoid collecting the condensed solution on the sample. The solution in the vessel can be used to test the pH value and concentration.
The time of salt spray test is generally 16h, 24, 48, 96148336672 hours.
The salt spray test standard specifies the salt spray test conditions, such as temperature, humidity, sodium chloride solution concentration and pH value. In addition, it also puts forward technical requirements for the performance of the salt spray test chamber. Which salt spray test standard shall be adopted for the same product shall be selected according to the characteristics of salt spray test, metal corrosion rate and sensitivity to salt spray.
