24、idual product specifications.5. Materials and Manufacture5.1 Hot-dip metallic coatings are used to provide corrosionprotection to steel sheets. Hot-dip metallic coatings are avail-able in six different types, zinc and zinc-iron alloy, lead-tinalloy (Terne), aluminum, 55 % aluminum-zinc alloy, zinc-5

25、 %aluminum alloy, and zinc-aluminum-magnesium alloy. Eachcoating type is available in various coating weights whichprovide varying degrees of corrosion protection and the con-sumer should consult the individual producers for applicabilityto the intended application and to obtain product information.

26、5.2 Hot-dip metallic coated products may be subject tochanges in mechanical properties after coating. As suchchanges are functions of the chemistry and processing historyof the material, the consumer should consult the individualproducers for applicability to the intended application.6. Chemical Com

27、position6.1 Base Steel:6.1.1 Chemical composition requirements of the base steelare shown in the individual product specifications.6.1.2 An analysis of each heat shall be made by themanufacturer to determine the percentage of carbon, manga-nese, phosphorus, sulfur, and any other elements specified o

28、rrestricted by the individual product specification.6.1.3 When desired, product analysis shall be made by thepurchaser on finished product. The product analysis so deter-mined shall meet the tolerances shown in Table 1.6.1.3.1 Capped or rimmed steels are not technologicallysuited to product analysis

29、 due to the nonuniform character oftheir chemical composition, and therefore, the tolerances inTable 1 do not apply. Product analysis is appropriate on thesesteels only when misapplication is apparent.6.1.3.2 Product analysis for phosphorus or sulfur is nottechnologically appropriate because of segr

30、egation of theseelements in non-killed steels. Product analysis is appropriateonly when misapplication is apparent.6.1.3.3 Samples for product analysis shall be drillingsthrough areas stripped free of coating. At least three piecesshall be selected, but if the product of more than one mill liftor co

31、il is involved, at least six pieces shall be selected.6.1.3.4 When supplying High-Strength Low-Alloy Steel(HSLA), some producers use one or more microalloyingelements as strengthening agents or use alloy additions to effectinclusion control, or both. The producer shall be consulted forthe specific c

32、hemical composition applied. If any alloyingaddition is known to be of concern to the user, the producershall be notified of this concern.3Available from Yale University Library, Standardization Documents OrderDesk, Bldg. 4 Section D, 700 Robbins Ave., Philadelphia, PA 191115094, Attn:NPODS.TABLE 1
