ISO 9588:1999
Metallic and other inorganic coatings -- Post-coating treatments of iron or steel to reduce the risk of hydrogen embrittlement
This International Standard establishes procedures for reducing susceptibility or degree of susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement that can arise in surface finishing processes.
The heat treatment procedures established in this International Standard have been shown to be effective in reducing the susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement. These heat-treatment procedures are used after surface finishing, but prior to any secondary conversion coating operation.
Stress-relief heat treatment procedures applied after fabrication, but prior to surface finishing, are specified in ISO 9587.
This International Standard does not apply to fasteners.
