2、n. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This specification covers hot- or cold-worked hafniumrod and wire, or both.1.2 This specification contains two material grades, o

3、nespecifically for nuclear applications (Grade R1) and one forcommercial applications for alloying (Grade R3).1.3 The products covered include the following:1.3.1 Rod38 to 1 in. (9.5 to 25 mm) in diameter.1.3.2 Wire less than38 in. (9.5 mm) in diameter.1.4 Unless a single unit is used, for example,

4、corrosion massgain in mg/dm2, the values stated in either inch-pound or SIunits are to be regarded separately as standard. The valuesstated in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem must be used independently of the other. SI valuescannot be mixed with inch-pound values.1.5 Thi

5、s 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 establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.
