1.1 This test method covers a metallographic method for determining the nonmetallic inclusion level of powders intended for powder forging (PF) applications.1.2 The test method covers repress powder forged test specimens in which there has been minimal lateral material flow ( 1%). The core region of the powder forged test specimen shall contain no porosity detectable at 100.1.3 This test method is not suitable for determining the nonmetallic inclusion level of powder forged test
