Corrosion Testing Standards

The test standard summaries are for general guidance only. Though believed to be accurate at the time of writing, this may change over time. So this information should not be used as a substitute for referring to a complete test standard, at an appropriate revision level.

Note: the terms salt spray, salt mist and salt fog are all in wide spread use within corrosion test standards. In this context they can be considered to be equivalent and interchangeable terms.

An accelerated corrosion test under complex environment shall be performed in accordance with CCT-D of MS600-66

Step 1: Salt Dipping (Immersion) @ 50°C  for 2 hours

Step 2: Wetting @ 50°C / 95%RH for 8 hours

Step 3: Drying @ 70°C / 30%RH for 1.5 hours

Step 4: Drying @ 70°C / 15%RH for 1.5 hours

Step 5: Wetting @ 35°C / 100%RH for 6.5 hours

Step 6: Drying @ 35°C / 15%RH for 2 hours

Step 7: Salt Spray @ 35°C / 95%RH for 30 minutes

Step 8: Freezing @ -20°C for 20 minutes

Transition times:

From step 1 to step 2 = 30 minutes

From step 2 to step 3 = 20 minutes

From step 3 to step 4 = 20 minutes

From step 4 to step 5 = 50 minutes

From Step 5 to step 6 = 50 minutes

From Step 6 to step 7 = 20 minutes

From Step 7 to step 8 = 60 minutes

From Step 8 to step 1 = 20 minutes

The entire cycle is 24 hours and repeatable
