ASTM A623M-2011 Standard Specification for Tin Mill Products General Requirements [Metric]《镀锡类产品的标准规格 一般要求(米制)》.pdf

1、Designation: A623M 11Standard Specification forTin Mill Products, General Requirements Metric1This standard is issued under the fixed designation A623M; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A n

2、umber in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.INTRODUCTIONThis specification is the metric counterpart of Specifi

3、cationA623. It is not intended to replaceA623.Users of the standard should note several very significant differences in how the product is producedand marketed.(1) The metric product does not carry the overrun associated with tin mill products produced tocustomary units. Metric tin mill products are

4、 produced to ordered size.(2) The metric product is designated in units of 100 m2called a SITA(System International TinplateArea), rather than in base boxes.(3) The metric product is designated by thickness in millimetres rather than by basis weight.(4) Coating weights are given in grams per square

5、metre, not pounds per base box.(5) Thickness tolerances are given in absolute figures instead of a 6 percentage.(6) Each package of metric tin mill products contains 100 sheets, not the 112 of customary unitpackages.All of the above significant differences, as well as others of lesser consequence, s

6、hould beconsidered when switching from Specification A623 to A623M.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers a group of common require-ments, which unless otherwise specified in the purchase orderor in an individual specification, shall apply to tin millproducts.1.2 In case of conflict in requirements,

7、the requirements ofthe purchase order, the individual material specification,andthis general specification shall prevail in the sequence named.1.3 The following safety hazards caveat covers Annex A1throughAnnexA8 of this specification: This standard does notpurport to address all of the safety conce

8、rns, if any, associatedwith its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standardto establish appropriate safety and health practices anddetermine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior touse.NOTE 1A complete inch-pound companion to Specification A623Mhas been developedA623; ther

32、27 steel Type MR, nbase-metal steel, similar in met-alloid content to Type L but less restrictive in residualelements, commonly used for most tin mill products (see Table1).3.1.28 surface appearance, nvisual characteristics deter-mined primarily by the steel surface finish. For electrolytic tinplate

33、, the appearance is also influenced by the weight ofcoating and by melting or not melting the tin coating.3.1.29 surface finishes, nsteel surface finishes for tin millproducts imparted by the finishing-mill work rolls. These maybe either ground, blasted, or etched roll finishes.3.1.30 temper designa

34、tion, nan arbitrary number to des-ignate a Rockwell hardness range for single-reduced products,which indicates the forming properties of the plate (see Section8 and Table 2 and Table 3).3.1.31 temper mill, na mill for rolling base metal steelafter annealing to obtain proper temper, flatness, and sur

35、facefinish. It may consist of one stand or two stands arranged intandem.3.1.32 tin coating weight, nthe weight of tin applied to thesteel surface, usually stated as grams per square metre distrib-uted evenly over both surfaces. The coating is usually referredto by designation numbers, referring sepa

36、rately to the nominaltin weight on each surface, but omitting the units. Thus, 2.8/2.8designates tin plate with a coating of 2.8 g/m2on each of thetwo surfaces. For differential coatings the same system isapplied. Thus, 1.1/2.2 has a coating of 1.1 g/m2on one surfaceand 2.2 g/m2on the other surface.

38、otherwiseagreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser.6. Cast or Heat Analysis6.1 For Type D, MR, and L an analysis of each heat of steelshall be made by the supplier to determine the percentage ofcarbon, manganese, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, and residualelements shown in Table 1. Other

39、elements, unless agreed uponbetween the manufacturer and the purchaser, individually shallnot exceed 0.02 %, maximum and while not necessarilyanalyzed are dependent on the suppliers practices and con-trols.7. Product Analysis7.1 Rimmed or capped steels are characterized by a lack ofuniformity in the

40、ir chemical composition, and for this reason,product analysis is not technologically appropriate unlessmisapplication is clearly indicated.8. Mechanical Requirements8.1 Single-Reduced Tin Mill Products, TemperThe termtemper when applied to single-reduced tin mill productssummarizes a combination of

41、interrelated mechanical proper-ties. No single mechanical test can measure all the variousfactors that contribute to the fabrication characteristics of thematerial. The Rockwell 30TS hardness value is a quick test,which serves as a guide to the properties of the plate. This testTABLE 1 Chemical Requ

For referee purposes, samples of black plate, unreflowed ETP, and ECCS shallbe aged prior to testing by holding at

48、200C for 10 minutes.2. The hardness test area on material produced with SBF or equivalent rolls shallbe sanded smooth on both surfaces.3. To avoid incorrect results due to the cantilever effect, samples shall have anarea no longer than 2500 mm2and the point of testing shall be no more than 13mm off

49、the center of the samples.A623M 113forms the basis for a system of temper designations as shownin Table 2 and Table 3. A given temper shall have hardnessvalues meeting the limits shown. The mechanical properties ofcontinuously annealed plate and batch annealed plate of thesame Rockwell 30TS temper designation are not identical. It isimportant to keep in mind, that the Rockwell 30TS test doesnot measure all the various factors, which contribute to thefabrication characteristics of the plate.8.2 Double-Reduced Tin Mill Products, Me
