A number in

2、parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the Department of Defense.1. Scope*1.1 This specification covers cast and wrought galvanic zincanodes

3、 used for the cathodic protection of more noble metalsand alloys in sea water, brackish water, other saline electro-lytes, or other corrosive environments.1.2 Type I anodes are most commonly used for suchapplications. The Type I anode composition in this specifica-tion meets the chemical composition

4、 requirements of MIL-A-18001J.1.3 Zinc anodes conforming to this specification may beused in other waters, electrolytes, backfills, and soils whereexperience has shown that the specified composition is efficientand reliable. Type II anodes are most commonly used for suchapplications.1.4 The values s

5、tated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard. The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to become familiarwith a

6、ll hazards including those identified in the appropriateMaterial Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for this product/materialas provided by the manufacturer, to establish appropriatesafety and health practices, and determine the applicability ofregulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Ordering Information4.1 Orders for anodes under this specification shall includethe following information:4.1.1 ASTM designation and year of issue,4.1.2 Type of anode material (see Table

12、1),4.1.3 Quantity in pounds,4.1.4 Number of anodes,4.1.5 Size of anode and whether contains rod insert and ifso, type of insert and whether contains bolt hole and if so,whether threaded.1This specification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee B02 onNonferrous Metals and Alloys and is the dire

15、 the marking patterns, if required, and4.1.7 Whether certification is required.5. Chemical Composition5.1 The anode shall be made from Special High Grade zincconforming to Specification B6, with suitable alloying addi-tions for Type I anodes. Composition of the anode alloy contentshall conform to th

16、e limits prescribed in Table 1.5.2 Evidence from laboratory tests shows that Type Icomposition may suffer intergranular corrosion. Susceptibilityto intergranular corrosion increases with increasing tempera-ture and is particularly severe above approximately 120F(50C). Intergranular corrosion can be

17、avoided (at tempera-tures above about 120F) with Type II composition, whichmust be made from special high-grade zinc with an ironcontent well below the 0.003 % maximum given in Specifica-tion B6.6. Methods of Chemical Analysis6.1 The chemical compositions enumerated in this specifi-cation shall, in

18、case of disagreement, be determined bymethods mutually agreed upon or the methods listed in Table 2approved for referee purposes by ASTM. Test Methods E 536shall be used, except for Type II.7. Bolt Holes and Threads7.1 For anodes with integral inserts intended for attachmentby bolting, it is recomme

19、nded that a bolt-hole spacing of 6 in.(152 mm) or even multiples thereof be used.7.2 Anodes with projecting rod inserts threaded for attach-ment by means of a bolted connection shall have UnifiedNational Coarse threads.8. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance8.1 The zinc anodes shall be free of flash,

20、 burrs, cracks,blow holes, and surface slag, consistent with good commercialpractice. Cast anodes shall not have shrinkage cavities exceed-ing14 the depth of the anode or 1 in. (25.4 mm), whichever issmaller when measured from a straightedge placed diagonallyacross opposite edges of the anode. Drill

21、 holes and saw cuts forsampling shall not be cause for rejection unless they are severeenough to cause premature failure of the anode.9. Sampling9.1 The sample for chemical analysis shall be taken asfollows:9.1.1 Selection of PortionA number of anodes shall beselected at random to give a representat

22、ive sample of the lot. Alot shall consist of not more than 20 000 lb (9070 kg) of zincanodes cast from a single melt or not more than 5000 lb (2268kg) of anodes cast in a single 24-h period from more than onemelt. The minimum number of anodes to be sampled shall beas specified in Table 3.9.1.2 Takin

23、g Sample for Chemical AnalysisEach selectedanode shall be sampled by drilling or machining with anonferrous tool. The use of a drill with a tungsten carbide tipis recommended. The tool bit or drill shall not penetrate intothe core material or a cored anode. The cuttings from all anodesin a lot shall

24、 be thoroughly mixed to form a uniform sample ofnot less than 50 g total.10. Claims10.1 Claims to be considered shall be made in writing to themanufacturer within 30 days of receipt of anodes at thepurchasers plant and the results of the purchasers tests shallbe given. The manufacturer shall be give

25、n one week from dateof receipt of such claim to investigate his records and then shallagree either to satisfy the claim or send a representative to theplant of the purchaser.11. Investigation of Claims11.1 The inspector representing the manufacturer shall ex-amine all pieces where physical defects a

26、re claimed. If agree-ment is not reached, the question of fact shall be submitted toa mutually agreeable umpire, whose decision shall be final.11.2 On a question of chemical analysis, a sample shall betaken by the representatives of both the manufacturer and thepurchaser as described in Section 4. T

27、he properly mixed andquartered sample shall be separated into three parts, each ofwhich shall be placed in a sealed envelope, one for themanufacturer, one for the purchaser, and one for the umpire ifTABLE 1 Chemical RequirementsAType (UNS)BAluminum, % Cadmium, %Iron,max,%Lead,max,%Copper,max,%Others
