NF EN ISO 9224
Corrosion of metals and alloys - Corrosivity of atmospheres - Guiding values for the corrosivity categories
ISO 9224:2012 specifies guiding values of corrosion attack for metals and alloys exposed to natural outdoor atmospheres for exposures greater than one year. It is intended to be used in conjunction with ISO 9223.Guiding corrosion values for standard structural materials can be used for engineering calculations. The guiding corrosion values specify the technical content of each of the individual corrosivity categories for these standard metals.ISO 9224:2012 provides examples of calculated maximum corrosion attack after extended exposure (up to 20 years) for six standardized corrosivity categories.It provides presumed average initial and steady-state corrosion rates of standard metals in intervals relative to six standardized corrosivity categories. It provides the calculation procedure for corrosion attack of steels in regard to their composition.

Le présent document définit une classification de la corrosivité des environnements atmosphériques. Il ne peut être utilisé pour déterminer les catégories de corrosivité à partir de durées d'exposition inférieures ou supérieures à la première année.

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.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!

- With a single click, add a new language, the Requirements or Redline+ service and add one or more additional users.
- Whether you are in the process of acquiring a standard or it is already available in your personal space, the UPSELL service is available at every stage to help you understand it and implement it within your organization.
