Talk:Oddy Test Protocols

Follow this guideline for posting your Protocol

It isn’t necessary to include every section, but the more information you are able to include in each section, the easier it will be for users to evaluate between the various protocols.

For Oddy Tests Please include information under the following headings:

• Check out the other Protocol descriptions to use a examples for sharing your own.
• Do you use the same protocol as one already listed with only minor modifications? Add in a heading and list your variations.
• Follow the protocol outlined in a published format to the letter? List that reference and note how long you've been using it.
• Best Practices:

Include an anchor before the heading for your protocol, so that links to your protocol on the results tables can take you to the correct place on that page. See below for the code or this page for how to add an anchor (see 1. Internal Links and then scroll down to internal link to an anchor).

The code for adding an anchor on the protocols page so that the link in the table will take you to the correct place on the protocols page:

Put this on the protocol page above the header: <div id="NAME"></div> .
Put this in the table: [[Oddy_Test_Protocols#NAME|NAME]]

1. General Overview of Test Type

There are generally four types of “Oddy” or accelerated corrosion tests being carried out for assessment of materials. These are the 3-in-1 test with the coupons inserted into a test tube stopper described in publications from the British Museum, a 3-in-1 test with coupons resting over the edge of a jar within a jar pulished by the Met, a 2018 protocol described by the Met on the AIC Wiki Oddy Test Protocols page, and a contact test in which coupons are partially in contact and partially not in contact with the tested material. It would be beneficial if you could identify which of these four protocols yours comes closest to.
