Overview

ISO/TR 16060:2003 - Destructive tests on welds in metallic materials: Etchants for macroscopic and microscopic examination - is an informative Technical Report that lists etchants suitable for examining welds in accordance with ISO 17639. It provides a non‑exhaustive catalogue of chemical etchants and practical guidance for a broad range of metallic groups: carbon and low‑alloy steels, stainless steels, nickel and nickel alloys, titanium and titanium alloys, copper and copper alloys, and aluminium and aluminium alloys.

Key topics

Scope and purpose: Informative list of etchants for macroscopic and microscopic weld examination (per ISO 17639).

Material groups covered: Carbon/low‑alloy steels, stainless steels, nickel alloys, titanium alloys, copper alloys, aluminium alloys.

Annex structure: Annexes A–F present etchants by material group; Annex G gives designation rules (names or table numbers).

Etchant data provided: Composition, order of mixing, surface preparation (grit/polish), etching temperature and time, safe shelf life, precautions and comments (e.g., Nital, Picral, oxalic acid, thiocyanate).

General guidance: Table of reagent characteristics (concentration, specific gravity, hydrates) and safety/disposal reminders.

Nature of the document: Technical Report (informative), not a normative standard - intended as practical reference rather than prescriptive requirements.

Practical applications

Metallographic labs performing macroscopic and microscopic examination of welds will use ISO/TR 16060:2003 to select appropriate etchants for revealing weld structure, heat‑affected zones (HAZ), carbides, grain boundaries and segregation.

Common practical etchants included: Nital (widely used for steels), Picral (carbide and fine‑structure detection), oxalic acid and thiocyanate solutions for stainless steels, plus specific recipes for copper, aluminium, titanium and nickel alloys.

The report helps optimize surface preparation, etching time and concentration to obtain clear contrast without over‑etching; it also highlights safety precautions for handling mineral acids and peroxides.

Who should use this

Welding inspectors and NDT professionals conducting destructive weld testing

Metallographers and materials scientists in QC, failure analysis and R&D

Laboratory technicians preparing specimens per ISO 17639
