Re: [MW:8741] ASTM E45 method D (How to determine?)

Dear Mr. Dom,
                     1. Always clean the sample after every polishing step with acetone.
2. Please refer ASM Handbook Volume 9.
3. To differentiate between different types you may use image analysis software, where you can get different colors for different inclusions.
4. You may also use, polarizer/analyser fitted microscope.
5. Also the etchant will affect the image.

I was facing some difficulties when performing inclusion test
accordance to E45method D

Normally the test sample is carbon steel.

1. I polished the test sample's surface to 0.06µm.
2. observed the surface under 100X.

The difficulties or doubts that i'm facing:
1. The sample will rust, some dots on surface, is very hard for me to
determine which 1 is inclusion.
2. How to differentiate silicate and sulfide? (refer to Plate I-r)
3. How to differentiate aluminate and oxide?
4. after i polished, all the black dots or lines on surface are
inclusions?
5. Is there any link or good book for reference.


Thanks in advance. :)
