ISO 11955-2 Determination of Corrosion Resistance Laboratory Testing Service

A Comprehensive Guide to Ensuring Product Safety and Reliability

As a leading laboratory testing service provider, Eurolab is committed to delivering high-quality services that meet the evolving needs of industries worldwide. One of our core services is the determination of corrosion resistance, as specified by ISO 11955-2. In this article, we will delve into the intricacies of this testing service, covering standard-related information, test requirements and needs, test conditions and methodology, test reporting and documentation, and more.

ISO 11955-2 is an international standard that outlines the requirements for determining corrosion resistance in various materials used in construction, such as steel, aluminum, and concrete. This standard is a part of the ISO 11955 series, which covers the determination of various properties and characteristics of building materials.

The legal and regulatory framework surrounding ISO 11955-2 testing is governed by national and international standards, including:

  • EN 10025:2004A1:2009 (BSI)

  • ASTM A6/A6M-14 (ASTM International)

  • TSE EN 10025-1:2018 (Turkish Standards Institution)

    • These standards dictate the specific requirements for testing materials, including sampling procedures, test methods, and evaluation criteria.

    Standard Development Organizations and Their Role

    The development of ISO 11955-2 is overseen by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO), a global federation of national standard bodies. The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is responsible for developing and maintaining EN standards, which are based on ISO standards. Similarly, ASTM International is responsible for developing and maintaining ASTM standards in North America.

    Evolution of Standards

    Standards evolve over time to reflect advances in technology, changes in regulatory requirements, or improvements in testing methods. Updates to ISO 11955-2 may be triggered by new research findings, emerging technologies, or shifting market needs.

    Standard Numbers and Scope

    Some relevant standard numbers for ISO 11955-2 are:

  • ISO 11955-1:2019 - Corrosion protection of steel structures - Part 1: General principles of design and protection against corrosion

  • ISO 11955-2:2015 - Corrosion protection of steel structures - Part 2: Determination of corrosion resistance

    • These standards cover specific aspects of corrosion protection, including general principles of design and protection against corrosion (ISO 11955-1), and determination of corrosion resistance (ISO 11955-2).

    Industry-Specific Examples and Case Studies

    Corrosion testing is crucial in various industries, such as:

  • Construction: Corrosion can lead to structural damage, compromising the safety and durability of buildings.

  • Automotive: Corrosion can affect vehicle performance, fuel efficiency, and overall safety.

  • Energy: Corrosion can reduce the lifespan of equipment, increasing maintenance costs and environmental impact.

    • Standard Compliance Requirements for Different Industries

    Different industries have varying standard compliance requirements. For example:

  • EN 10025-1:2018 applies to structural steel products used in construction.

  • ASTM A6/A6M-14 applies to steel pipe used in oil and gas pipelines.

    • Compliance with these standards ensures that materials meet specific performance criteria, minimizing the risk of corrosion-related failures.

    The determination of corrosion resistance is a critical testing service required by various industries. This test assesses a materials ability to resist corrosion under specified conditions, ensuring the safety and reliability of products and structures.
