American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). Current edition approved May 1, 2011. Published August 2011. Originally approved in 1985. Last previous edition approved in 2009 as G85–09. 14 p.
This practice covers and sets forth conditions for five modifications in salt spray (fog) testing for specification purposes. These are in chronological order of their development:
Annex A1, acetic acid-salt spray test, continuous
Annex A2, cyclic acidified salt spray test
Annex A3, seawater acidified test, cyclic (SWAAT)
Annex A4, SO₂ salt spray test, cyclic
Annex A5, dilute electrolyte cyclic fog dry test
This practice is applicable to ferrous and nonferrous metals; also organic and inorganic coatings. The variations described herein are useful when a different or more corrosive environment than the salt fog described in Practice B117 is desired.
