6 The first step in metallographic sample preparation consists in sectioning a sample from a larger given piece to obtain a representative crosssection. Sectioning a material without causing structural changes defines the perfect cut. Abrasive cut-off wheels are made of abrasive particles bonded with a resin, a resin/rubber or a rubber matrix. They are designed to wear away, continuously exposing sharp new abrasive particles. SECTIONING A "Soft" wheel is used for cutting hard and brittle materials. It provides new surfaces of cutting abrasives more rapidly while the bond breaks down. The "Hard " wheel has a slower break down bond rate, which is suitable for soft and ductile materials. Adequate cooling is required to remove debris and avoid thermal damages to the sample. The careful combination of particle type, particle size and wheel hardness helps prevent burns and distortions, yet provide maximum useful life. Cutting requires a sufficient amount of pressure to be applied to the abrasive wheel while cutting, excessive pressure will cause the abrasive wheel to stall or break. Cut-off wheels with aluminum oxide as the abrasive are generally used for cutting ferrous samples, alloys and most other metals. Silicon carbide is recommended for non-ferrous and other nonmetallic materials. 9" 10" 12" 14" APPLICATIONS (229mm) (254mm) (305mm) (355mm) HRC60+, Carburized Steel, Tool Steel HRC50-65 Hard Steel CW CW CW CW HRC45-60, Hard Steel HRC35-50, Soft or Annealed Steel CW CW CW CW HRC30-45, Medium Hard Steel HRC up to 35 CW CW CW CW HRC20-35, Soft or Annealed Steel Ultrathin, Delicate Hard Non-Ferrous, Glass, Mineral Med.

15 SECTIONING SELECTION OF WAFERING DIAMOND S Wafering blades made of metal have diamond particles bound along the outside edge of the blade. The diamond blades are available in a resin or a metal bond. For sectioning with a wafering blade, a slow speed and an adequate coolant should be selected. The pressure to the wheel/sample contact point should not be applied with excessive force. To remove any metal debris, it is recommended to dress the wafering blade using a dressing stick. Metal Bond blades are recommended for alumina, ceramics, nitrides, zirconia, electronic packaging and soft metal base alloys. Cubic Boron Nitride blades are designed for ferrous and nickel-based super-alloys.

18 Metallographic samples are mounted to protect edges of fragile materials and to prepare multiple samples of uniform size. Compression mounting is carried out using a mounting press where the sample and the selected mounting media material are inserted in the mounting cylinder. Heat and pressure are simultaneously applied during the mounting cycle of the sample. The different types of mounting media available are thermoplastic and thermosetting powders. MOUNTING Thermoplastic mounting material remains fluid at elevated molding temperatures and hardens during cooling. This resin can be used for fragile materials. Pressure can be applied when resin is in the molten state. A useful property of the thermoplastic resin is its transparency once cooled. It is much easier to detect the area of interest. Thermosetting mounting material is wood flour filled with phenolic compound that cures at elevated temperature and pressure. The available thermosetting powders are phenolic, diallyl phthalate and epoxies. The phenolic powder in the form of powders or preforms is the more commonly used. The diallyl phthalate is available with mineral or fiberglass filler. The edge retention of the glass filled is better than phenolic powder. The epoxies provide the best edge retention with low shrinkage. The selection of the type of compression mounting powder to use will depend on the abrasion rate of the media and the sample being mounted. Normally, one would choose a mounting medium with an abrasion rate comparable to that of the sample.

21 Ambient mounting MOUNTING Ambient mounting technique is a suitable method when a specimen may be sensitive to pressure and heat involved in compression mounting. The most common systems for cold mounting materials are Epoxies, Acrylics and Polyesters. These systems are all made of two or three components consisting of resins and hardeners. Epoxies are slow curing and have low shrinkage properties, suitable for ceramic and mineral samples. Acrylics have a short polymerization time and give a clear transparent mount. Polyester resin is fast curing and provides an opaque white mount. General characteristics Name of Product Groups Curing time Epoxy Epoxy 24 hrs. 8 hrs. 1 hr.

28 ABRASIVE Belts Abrasive belts are generally used after sample sectioning and previous to mounting to remove scale orburrs. Constructed of X weight cloth, a heavy backing material, the abrasive belts can be used wet or dry. To make the most effective use of the abrasive belts the choice of correct joint is very important. These belts have a special butt splice, reinforced with a strong plastic film to prevent specimen "bump" where the ends meet. Silicon Carbide Abrasive, the most frequently used in a materials laboratory, with a hardness of 9.6, is a brittle mineral used for a wide range of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Aluminum Oxide Abrasive, hardness 9.4, is also a mineral that is tough and durable. Zirconia-Alumina Abrasive, hardness of 8.5, a very hard alloy mineral of aluminum and zirconium oxide, is very effective for coarse grade stock removal. All the above-mentioned abrasives have very wedge-shaped grains.

36 DIAMOND Discs Diamond discs consist of a layer of carefully graded diamonds securely bonded to a 1/16 inch flat metal plate. Two bond types are available, metal bond and resin bond. Metal bond diamond discs consist of diamond particles electroplated to a 1/16 inch flat plate with a nickel bond. This process provides maximum bond strength, an aggressive cutting action and extends disc life. Resin bonded diamond discs use a resin matrix to bond the diamond particles to a flat aluminum backing. This results in a less aggressive cutting action but a finer finish. Both types of diamond discs are intended for ceramics, carbides and carbide alloys, nitrides, zirconia and other hardened metals. Regulating pressure and lubricant flow can control the texture of the finish obtained.

37 DIAMOND SPOT Discs Diamond spot discs consist of spot diamond electroplating through a color-coded nylon mesh substrate. This application procedure gives a longer life to the diamond spot disc, providing an aggressive material removal rate. The quality of the sample surface obtained will be dependent on the flatness of the substrate on which it is used. Since the fixed diamonds are much harder than the specimen and mounting material, the diamond spot discs will cut both at the same rate. This characteristic produces specimen edges with distinct sharpness. Diamond spot discs will prove most effective on hard nonferrous metals, ceramic, carbides, zirconia alloys, cobalt super alloys, high-speed steels and titanium GRINDING DIAMOND SPOT Discs Diameter: 8" (203 mm) Resin Bond -- PSA MICRONS DIAMOND SPOT Discs Diameter: 12" (305 mm) Resin Bond -- PSA MICRONS DIAMOND SPOT Discs Diameter: 8" (203 mm) Metal Bond -- PSA DIAMOND SPOT Discs Diameter: 12" (305 mm) Metal Bond -- PSA MICRONS MICRONS DRESSING Sticks for Diamond discs DESCRIPTION Diamond Dressing Stick, SiC 1" x 1" x 6" Diamond Dressing Stick, Al2O3 1" x 1" x 6" 1 32 CANNOT FIND A SPECIFIC ITEM, CALL.

43 DIAMOND Extenders The diamond extender either, water, oil, alcohol or water/oil base can be applied by squirt or spray. The type of diamond extender to be used, will depend on the material to be polished. The extenders maximize the cutting action of the diamond product and maintain an even dispersion of the diamond abrasive over the entire polishing cloth. An alcohol base extender is recommended for high stock removal rate, requiring a high cooling. A low viscosity extender is used for low cooling and low stock removal. Excessive volume of diamond extender during polishing can result in loss of diamond abrasive. WATER Base RED oz l oz l gal l. POLISHING OIL Base PINK oz l. OIL Base oz l gal l.

47 POLISHING Cloths Rough polishing is considered to be the crucial stage in the entire metallographic preparation sequence. The type of cloth and abrasive selected is critical. It is important to keep relief between the different constituents in the sample to a minimum. Using napless cloths, such as nylon, cotton, silk, etc. will minimize the possibility of relief and take full advantage of the cutting edge of the abrasive. The type of cloth selected usually depends on the hardness of the material to polish. Napped cloths are usually used for final polishing. This type of cloth has long fibers and is compressible. The softer phases will have a higher rate of removal than the harder phases. The polishing cloths are available in several diameters with plain back or pressure sensitive adhesive backing.

64 APPLICATION Notes Field metallography describes the practice of performing micro structural analysis outside the metallurgical laboratory. It can include everything from grain sizing of titanium forging on a production floor all the way to steam boiler failure analysis on a ship. Process requirements include all of the specimen preparation procedures performed in the metallography lab. Field metallography begins with the very rough grinding of the selected area, usually with a 60 grit abrasive. Thick scale and rust must be removed over an area larger than the ultimate spot. Each area worked should be smaller than that worked in the previous step. This reduces the opportunity of dragging large particles across the prepared area. After rough grinding, a sequence of fine grinding steps follow. The use of an etchant after polishing is often required to bring out the relevant microstructure. Analysis and documentation are the final steps in field metallography. This can be achieved with either the new silicone rubber methods or the cellulose acetate tape using the replication technique. The equipment used in field metallography is very diverse. For rough grinding, right angle grinders or portable belt sanders are popular. Fine grinding and polishing can be accomplished with variable speed drills or dremel tools. REPLICA Tape Acetate base.
