ISO 15158:2014

Corrosion of metals and alloys - Method of measuring the pitting potential for stainless steels by potentiodynamic control in sodium chloride solution

ISO 15158:2014 describes the procedure for determining the pitting potential for stainless steels (austenitic, ferritic/austenitic, ferritic, martensitic stainless steel) under potentiodynamic control.

The principal advantage compared with other potentiostatic test methods is the rapidity of this test method, with which the pitting potential can be measured in a single potential scan.

The pitting potential as determined by ISO 15158:2014 can be used as a relative index of performance. For example, one can compare the relative performances for different lots of stainless-steel grades and products. The test described in ISO 15158:2014 is not intended to determine the pitting potential at which actual pitting can occur under real service conditions, or not.

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
