AA ANSI H35.3-1997 Designation system for aluminum hardeners.pdf

1、ANSI H35.3-1997 (R2013)Reaffi rmation of H35.3-19971. Scope1.1 This standard provides a system for designat-ing aluminum hardeners used primarily for the addition of alloying or grain refi ning elements or modifi ers to aluminum alloy melts.2. Alloy Designation SystemQ2.1 This system consists of fou

2、r digit numerical designations prefi xed by the letter H. The fi rst two digits identify the hardener alloy group by major alloying elementW Eas shown in Table 1. The last two digits indicate the sequential registration of hardener alloys beginning with the number H2X00 and have no other signifi can

Should two or more major elements have equal nominal concentrations, that element appearing fi rst in the element limit sequence shall be used to determine designation grouping. When nominal concentration of two or more elem
