ASTM B170. Standard specifications for an oxygen-free electrolytic copper-refinery
Are you interested in the ASTM B170 standard, which specifies the specification for anoxic electrolytic billet from copper alloys, from the supplier company AvecGlob? Here you will find interesting information on this topic.
General information
This specification covers two classes of alloys — according to UNS C10100) and UNS C10200 electrolyte copper billets and semi-finished products manufactured without the use of various deoxidizers. The chemical composition of each variety must meet the specified requirements.
The ASTM B170 standard specifies the maximum specific mechanical resistance of the material for each class. Class 1 shall withstand ten reverse kinks without failure in accordance with test procedure B 577. Class 2 shall withstand eight reverse kinks without breaking in accordance with test procedure B 577.
Application area
The ASTM B170 standard specifies requirements for two classes of anoxic electrolytic copper alloys obtained without the use of deoxidizers.
Oxygen-free copper should not contain more than 0.0010% oxygen, category 1 copper (UNS C10100) must correspond to B224, copper grade 2 (UNS C10200) should also comply with classification B224. Copper grade 2 can be used to make alloys corresponding to UNS C10400, C10500 and C10700.
Security
This standard does not purport to address all of the security concerns (if any) associated with its use. The user of the ASTM B170 standard is responsible for establishing good practices in occupational safety and health and determining the applicability of regulatory restrictions before use.
