Aluminium and aluminium alloys - Anodizing - Part 18: Rating system for the evaluation of pitting corrosion - Chart method EN 12373-18:2001

Publication date:   Dec 22, 2003

Scope

This Part of this European standard specifies a chart rating system based on standard charts that provides a means of defining levels of performance of anodic oxidation coatings on aliminium and its alloys that have been subjected to corrosion tests. This rating system is applicable to pitting corrosion resulting from - accelerated tests; - exposure to corrosive environments; - practical service tests.
