ASTM B299-2001 Standard Specification for Titanium Sponge《海绵钛标准规范》.pdf

1、Designation: B 299 01Standard Specification forTitanium Sponge1This standard is issued under the fixed designation B 299; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates

2、the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers virgin titanium metal meltingstock. This virgin metal is commonly designated as spongetitanium because it is most commonly porous and sponge

3、like intexture, although metal produced electrolytically is granularand is essentially nonporous.1.2 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:E 10 Test Method for Brinell

5、allurgicalproducts (single definition, common to nuclear and non-nuclear standards)a lot shall consist of a material of thesame size, shape, condition, and finish produced from the sameingot or powder blend by the same reduction schedule and thesame heat treatment parameters. Unless otherwise agreed

6、between manufacturer and purchaser, a lot shall be limited tothe product of an 8 h period for final continuous anneal, or toa single furnace load for final batch anneal.3.1.4 spongea lot shall consist of a single blend producedat one time.3.1.5 weld fittingsdefinitions is to be mutually agreedupon b

7、etween manufacturer and the purchaser.4. Materials and Manufacture4.1 Sponge titanium is usually prepared by reduction oftitanium tetrachloride and gets its spongelike character fromthe processes involved in production. This spongy character-istic, however, is not considered essential and may be exp

8、ectedto vary greatly with manufacturing methods. For example,virgin titanium produced electrolytically is crystalline orgranular in character and is essentially nonporous. The metal isusually supplied in lump or granular form. This specification,however, is not limited to metal prepared by reduction

9、 of thetetrachloride.4.2 Only virgin titanium, free of scrap and intentionallyadded contaminants, shall be supplied under this specification.It shall be supplied in uniform, well-mixed blends, each ofwhich shall be clearly designated.5. Chemical Composition5.1 The titanium metal supplied under this

10、specificationshall conform to the chemical composition requirements pre-scribed in Table 1.6. Hardness6.1 The Brinell Hardness of a lot shall be the average of thehardness determinations on each button prepared as describedin Section 5. The average hardness of each button for the lotshall not exceed

11、 the values specified in Table 1. Measurementshall be in accordance with Test Method E 10, using a 0.394 in.(10-mm) ball, 3307-lbf (1500-kgf) load, and 30-s dwell.7. Sampling7.1 The sampling method used shall be a matter of agree-ment between the manufacturer and the purchaser. The follow-ing are ac

12、ceptable industrial practices:7.1.1 The blend shall be sampled as required in 7.1.2 and7.1.3 unless otherwise agreed upon between the manufacturerand the purchaser.7.1.2 The sample for determining the conformance of the lotto the chemical and physical requirements shall be obtained bysampling the lo

13、t to produce a 0.25 % sample but not less than30 lb (14 kg) providing the lot is crushed to a particle size of1 in. (25.4 mm) or less in size.

16、The resulting 0.1-lb (45-g) buttons shallbe checked for Brinell hardness and samples shall be takenfrom each button for the required chemical analysis. The 0.5-lb(227-g) sample shall be used for the metal, chlorine, hydrogen,and moisture analysis.8. Retests8.1 If the results of any test lot are not

17、in conformance withthe requirements of this specification, the lot may be retested atthe option of the manufacturer. The frequency of the retest willdouble the initial number of tests. If the results of the retestconform to this specification, then the retest values willbecome the test values for ce

18、rtification. If the results of theretest fail to conform to this specification, the material will berejected in accordance with Section 9. All test values, originaland retest, shall be reported to the purchaser.9. Report of Analysis9.1 The manufacturer shall supply at least one copy of thereport sho

Methods of Chemical Analysis10.1 The methods of analysis shall be in accordance withTest Methods E 120 or as agreed upon between the manufac-turer and the purchaser. Moisture content shall be determinedby any curren

20、t acceptable industrial practice.11. Rejection11.1 Material not conforming to this specification or toauthorized modifications shall be subject to rejection. Unlessotherwise specified, rejected material may be returned to themanufacturer at the manufacturers expense, unless the pur-chaser receives,

21、within 3 weeks of the notice of rejection, otherinstructions for disposition.12. Referee Test and Analysis12.1 In the event of disagreement between the manufacturerand the purchaser on the conformance of the material to therequirements of this specification, a mutually acceptable ref-eree shall perf

22、orm the tests in question. The referees testingshall be used in determining conformance of the material tothis specification.13. Packaging and Package Marking13.1 The method of packaging shall be agreed upon be-tween the manufacturer and the purchaser. The size and natureof the containers used are g

23、enerally determined by the time andlength of storage and the amount of handling involved. Wherea fire hazard or sponge deterioration during prolonged storageare primary considerations, titanium sponge should be packedin air-tight, moisture-proof, sealed metal cans or drums of atype suitable for ship

24、ment at the lowest rate by commoncarrier. Tightly sealed fiber drums are considered adequatewhere handling is at a minimum and usage is rather prompt.14.

28、0 %.GThe chemical requirements for grade MD sponge have been modified to reflect the use of stainless steel production vessels, which are the norm for this grade ofsponge. The use of stainless steel necessarily now incorporates unavoidable chromium and nickel contaminants. These contaminants do not

29、alter the basic propertyrequirements of the sponge. However, it is necessary to incorporate these two unavoidable contaminants into the chemical requirements for this grade, just as the otherunavoidable contaminants have been assigned maximum permissible levels.B299012ASTM International takes no pos
