BS EN 60793-1-33:2017 contains descriptions of the five main test methods for the
determination of stress corrosion susceptibility parameters.The object of this document is to establish uniform requirements for the mechanical
characteristic of stress corrosion susceptibility for silica-based fibres. Dynamic fatigue and
static fatigue tests are used to determine the (dynamic) nd value and (static) ns value of stress
corrosion susceptibility parameters. Currently, only the nd-value is assessed against
specification. Measured values greater than 18 per this procedure reflect the nd-value of
silica, which is approximately 20. Higher values will not translate to demonstrable enhanced
fatigue resistance.Cross References:IEC TR 62048:2014All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
