2、 last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.A superscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers hafnium alloyed niobium foil,sheet, strip, and plate.1.2 The material covered by this spec

3、ification is R04295,niobium-base alloy containing approximately 10 % hafniumand 1 % titanium.1.3 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, theSI units are shown in brackets. The values stated in eachsystem are not exact equiva

4、lents; therefore, each system shallbe used independently of the other. Combining values from thetwo systems may result in nonconformance with the specifi-cation.1.4 The following safety hazards caveat pertains only to thetest methods portion, Section 14, of this specification: Thisstandard does not

5、purport to address all of the safety problems,if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the userof this standard to establish appropriate safety and healthpractices and determine the applicability of regulatory limita-tions prior to use.2.
