Materials and Manufacture4.1 Sponge titaniumTitanium sponge is usually prepared by reduction of titanium tetrachlorid

7、e and gets its spongelikesponge-like character from the processes involved in production. This spongy characteristic, however, is not considered essential and maybe expected to vary greatly with manufacturing methods. For example, virgin titanium produced electrolytically is crystalline orgranular i

8、n character and is essentially nonporous. The metal is usually supplied in lump or granular form. This specification,however, is not limited to metal prepared by reduction of the tetrachloride.4.2 This specification is not limited to metal prepared by reduction of the tetrachloride.4.3 Only virgin t

United States16. Hardness6.1 Brinell hardness testing is optional

15、 unless requested by the purchaser. The Brinell Hardness of a lot shall be the average ofthe hardness determinations on each button prepared as described in 5.17.1.2. The average hardness of each button for the lot shallnot exceed the values specified in Table 1. Measurement shall be in accordance w

16、ith Test Method E10, 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 agreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser. The following areacceptable industrial practices:purchaser, but shall be such that the analy

17、sis is representative of the sponge lot. The following isone acceptable industrial practice:7.1.1 The blend shall be sampled as required in 7.1.2 and 7.1.3 unless otherwise agreed upon between the manufacturer and thepurchaser.7.1.1 The sample for determining the conformance of the lot to the chemic

18、al and physical requirements shall be obtained bysampling the lot to produce a 0.25 % sample but not less than 30 lb (14 kg) providing the lot is crushed to a particle size of 1 in.(25.4 mm) or less in size. The blended evaluation sample shall be split to produce two or more samples 0.1 lb (45 g) or

19、 more each,to be melted into buttons, and one sample of at least 0.5 lb (227 g).7.1.2 The buttons shall be melted in a furnace under an inert-gas atmosphere. The resulting 0.1-lb (45-g) buttons shall bechecked for Brinell hardness and samples shall be taken from each button for the required chemical

20、 analysis. analysis (Table 1).The 0.5-lb (227-g) sample shall be used for the metal, chlorine,chloride, hydrogen, and moisture (water) analysis.8. Retests8.1 If the results of any test lot are not in conformance with the requirements of this specification, the lot may be retested atthe option of the

21、 manufacturer. The frequency of the retest will double the initial number of tests. If the results of the retest conformto this specification, then the retest values will become the test values for certification. If the results of the retest fail to conformto this specification, the material will be

22、 rejected in accordance with Section 9.All test values, original and retest, shall be reportedto the purchaser.9. Report of Analysis Certification9.1 The manufacturer shall supply at least one copy ofAproducers or suppliers certification shall be furnished to the purchaser.The certification will sta

23、te the manufacturing method employed and the grade of titanium sponge produced (as per Table 1thereport showing the results of chemical analysis and hardness tests on the material supplied.). In addition, the certification will statethat the sampling and testing was performed in accordance with this

24、 specification and has been found to meet the requirementstherein. A report of the results, including Brinell Hardness if required, shall be furnished with the certification.TABLE 1 Chemical RequirementsElement Weight by % (Dry Basis)GPA ELB SLC MLD MDENitrogen, max 0.02 0.008 0.015 0.015 0.015Carbo

28、.G The 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 of sponge.The use of stainless steel necessarily now incorporates unavoidable chromium and nickel contaminants. These contaminants do not al

29、ter the basic property requirementsof the sponge. However, it is necessary to incorporate these two unavoidable contaminants into the chemical requirements for this grade, just as the other unavoidablecontaminants have been assigned maximum permissible levels.B299 13210. Methods of Chemical Analysis

30、10.1 The methods of analysis shall be in accordance with Test Methods E1409, E1447, E1941, or E2371 or by other methodsas agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purchaser. Moisture content shall be determined by any current acceptableindustrial practice.10.2 Where test methods do not exist, th

31、e supplier will determine the technique(s) unless otherwise required by the purchaser.11. Rejection11.1 Material not conforming to this specification or to authorized modifications shall be subject to rejection. Unless otherwisespecified, rejected material may be returned to the manufacturer at the

32、manufacturers expense, unless the purchaser receives,within 3 weeks of the notice of rejection, other instructions for disposition.12. Referee Test and Analysis12.1 In the event of disagreement between the manufacturer and the purchaser on the conformance of the material to therequirements of this s

33、pecification, a mutually acceptable referee shall perform the tests in question. The referees testing shall beused in determining conformance of the material to this specification.13. Packaging and Package Marking13.1 The method of packaging shall be agreed upon between the manufacturer and the purc

34、haser. The size and nature of thecontainers used are generally determined by the time and length of storage and the amount of handling involved. Where a firehazard or sponge deterioration during prolonged storage are primary considerations, titanium sponge should be packed in air-tight,moisture-proo

35、f, sealed metal cans or drums of a type suitable for shipment at the lowest rate by common carrier. Tightly sealedfiber drums are considered adequate where handling is at a minimum and usage is rather prompt.14.
